    Thank you Richard.  I've had a quick look at the video.  I will need to see it a few times to take it in, but it will certainly give me a much better idea of how to use C1.  I am actually going awa...

    I still have one more query.  My downloaded copy of The Photographers Guide to Capture One (2023) tells me that  "the Preview image window in the Print dialog box will change as you select a new pr...

    Thanks Walter.  Much in these exchanges for me to work on to get the best out of my images.  I don't have the most up-to-date 'rawcaptureguide', only the 2023 version, but none of this can be found...

    Thank you for that - I was looking in the wrong places.  But I'm using Windows 11.  System/Display offers a Night Light which is off, and the possibility of HDR (though I doubt if my 12 year old mo...

    The answer to your question, Walter, is 'no', if only because I don't know where to find System Settings for my Display.  My previous profiling device offered me the option of 'ambient light adjust...

    Thanks Walter, that's all clear now.  I've sort of muddled through with printing from Capture One so far, without fully understanding the set-up.  But I'm definitrely moving up the learning curve. ...

    Thanks, Walter - that makes sense but I'm surprised it's not something I've needed to do before.  Can you also comment on the other points I've raised: (1) Is there a reason behind Capture One not ...

    Thanks for that suggestion but are you say that you use a different monitor brightness when making a proof from which to print, compared with creating an image to view on a screen.  I haven't felt ...

    Certainly I can set the luminance/brightness to any level but I have always worked at the level recommended by Calibrite of 120 candela.  Your figure of 85 is a long way removed from that.  My prev...

    The brightness is now 40% (for the arrow to be green with my new Calibrite display pro).  With my previous device it was in the range 28-32% if I remember correctly, but certainly less than 40%.  I...
