<p>It is the landscape sharpening presets from Matt Kloskowski, his portrait presets do not cause same problem.</p>

<p>Figured it out. Using preset sharpening and it sets clarity back to 10, I suppose to ensure not over done.</p>

<p>When I import raw images and apply a preset the clarity is set to 10. Through the workflow I sometimes increase the clarity, but when I sharpen the image clarity goes back to 10 at the preset level. What's going on??</p>

<p>I have over 3k of 35mm slides that have all been digitized, and my next decision is whether to keep the slides or get rid of them. Any opinions on this?</p>

<p>I have a bunch of old family MF negs from the 1940's as well as some old prints that I want to get into digital files. Have been looking at the Epson V500 and V600, is there any big difference between the two for final digital image?<br>

Also I have found that Photoshop CS5 64 bit does not work with TWAIN, what is an alternative?</p>

<p>I did set to factory defaults and warmed up for more than 30 minutes. The software with Spyder3 Pro does not have those controls. <br>

After calibrating and if a color tint is visible can I use the monitors color adjustments, hue, saturation, etc., to eliminate the tint?<br>

Also at the start I have had the monitor "Preset Modes" at Standard, is this taking advantage of the wide color gamete or should I set it at "Adobe RGB"?</p>

<p>I recently bought a Dell U2410 and a Spyder3 Pro. Have tried numerous times to calibrate using the Spyder, but always seems to have a pinkish tint. Could some one help me with the calibration of this monitor?</p>

<p>I'm using Windows 7, have loaded the Dell driver for the U2410 and set the resolution.<br>

At first what should the settings on the monitor be before using Spyder?<br>

And if there is a pinkish tint after calibration, how to remove it?</p>

<p>I have a Dell U2410 coming and want to get a new graphics card for photo editing, any suggestions?<br>

Also any suggestions on calibration software for the U2410?</p>
