Is there a way of calibrating a desktop monitor & a Laptop screen to both be accurate & show the same colour rendition, without buying a gizmo?
If not, as I suspect, which gizmo's work well at the lower end of the market?
My desktop PC, which is a very old gameing set up & due to be replaced, doesn't seem to like Lightroom. So I downloaded LR on to my laptop & PP'd a few RAW files & was pretty happy with them. Until I viewed them on the desktops biggger monitor. The laptop seems to have a blue hue while the monitor has a strong red hue in comparison. I've played around with one or two online calibration guides & I just cannot get them to look even broadly similar! Now I'm in the position of not knowing which is more accurate & don't know how my images really look! I'm going around in circles here... any suggestions.
