p.1 #1 · What's Your Color Accuracy?

Hey fellow Canon friends, just thought I'd share this link :

http://www.xrite.com/custom_page.aspx?PageID=77

Test your color IQ

For how much we stress on working in the right color space, and being calibrated, this is just a check to see if you're calibrated too,

.

Cheers,
Thomas (Scored 0 the first try, but I took a few minutes)

I got an 8, although that was on my new monitor, which hasn't been calibrated yet. In the photographer's tradition, I'm going to claim my incorrect answers were a result of poor hardware.

I scored 15, but this is on my completely non-calibrated monitor at work. I'll try it again when I get home.

I got an 11 on my dell Laptop. I will blame no calibration ... florescent lights ... led backlit ... poor contacts ... because there is no way that's the fault of my eyes

I got 11 on a calibrated monitor. The max score for my age/gender is about 1480, so I'm OK with 11.

Getting better, redid the test and scored 12

the max for my age/gender is 1520!

Make that 4 - I'm trying for a perfect 0! Improved from 25 to 4 in just three goes though!

I have red-green colour weakness (not blind) and have trouble discerning pastel colours and very dark colours, so I won't bother embarassing myself.

Also got a 4 on a quick run.

That is a pretty kewl test...

Edit: ran the test again and still got a 4 on my 30" Apple Cinema Display. Actually I need to finally go in and get a vision test. Now that I am in my 40's I know my distance vision is going bad. Can't put off the denial any longer...

OK 15 for me, better than I thought these are 63 year old eyes and an uncalibrated 1 week old LG Flatron W2252TQ.

I have never tried something like this before supprised me that me and my monitor did so well.

29 here on my 14.1" laptop monitor

Thank god, I let the editor and the print shops handle my color calibration. I guess my hands are washed from this mess.
