Donald,
	You reduce the brightness at that stage by individually reducing
each colour, not by using the brightness control. If you reduce all three
colours a bit at each time you will find they will stay fairly equal in
neutrality but the brightness will reduce.

Subject: Spyder with Photocal

There has been some discussion of what setting to choose for monitor
temperature when the monitor does not have individual RGB guns, and does not
allow for selection of a preset of 6500.  These monitors, like my Sony
Multiscan G400, have a selection in the color temperature menu designated by
three dots which brings up a scale from 0 to 100.  If one does a proportion,
100:9300=X:6500, the calculation solves to 70.
    What bothers me is the later step in Photocal that calls for adjusting
luminance so that the reading shown in the menu is between 85 and 95.  After
previous adjustment of brightness to something pleasant to the eye, changing
it to reduce the reading to 95 severely dims the screen.  Any comments?
