Can somebody please check the colors on this for me?

I'm still not thrilled with the results I'm getting from my new Spyder 4 Pro calibration system.

C&C always welcome. One 24x24 softbox camera right at 45*, one 24x24 softbox camera left 15* (nearly straight on), and a third speedlight behind her on camera left for a splash of light on top of her head.

Thanks for looking as always. :mrgreen:

Looks good to me; the red channel might be just a tough high, but that's it. What are you seeing/not seeing that you don't like?

After I calibrated my monitor, my whites all have a reddish tinge to them.

Odd; I'm using the 3, and I find it's bang on.

Do you have anything shot with white? A pink skinned child in a purple shirt is going to have a "reddish tinge". On my monitor, it looks perfectly fine. (I don't have calibration software)

Looks good, no issues.

Dont get too sucked in with calibration. Go view it on an iphone, ipad, droid etc. If it looks bad on those devices, does it matter if your monitor is "calibrated"?

Anyway, your photo looks good on my iphone.

Looks just right on my screen.

It does have a slight red tint to it. I looked at the RGB value on one of her teeth and it shows 166,149,146 so the red channel is slightly high.

Another photo of my little angel. I think the skin tones look better in this one...

MUCH better! The white in the corner of her right eye is showing an RGB value of 221, 227, 230 (Varying slightly depending on where I put my cursor). That's plenty close enough, and to my eye it looks much better.
