Pocket 6K, 6K PRO & Video Assist easy display calibration

PostWed Mar 29, 2023 7:56 am

I found a simple trick on how to calibrate your Blackmagic Design Pocket 6K / 6K Pro display without guessing it by eyes. Since most of us have some sort of calibration device like X-Rite, Calibrite, Spyder, etc. for our editing screens I thought why not using it for my other equipment too.

If you happen to have access to a Sekonic C-800 than it's much easier to calibrate your screens:

I used that first technique too, but the sliders make it unnecessarily hard to adjust precisely.
I wish there would be a way to insert a value too.
Saying "Thx for help!" is not a crime.
