On the Internet, where many monitors are not well calibrated, often what appears to be blown highlights on the screen is simply the monitor whitepoint (adjusted with the contrast control) set too high. When you adjust your monitor with Adobe Gamma for instance they tell you to set contrast at 100%, but better seems to be about 95% then you do not get those false blown highlights on the screen. graywolf http://www.graywolfphoto.com "Idiot Proof" <==> "Expert Proof" ----------------------------------- Hmmm. Thanks graywolf. I got a spyder on sale cheap. Haven't tried it yet. Up until now used Adobe Game. Interesting. Marnie aka that Doe person
