The acid test of any color TV is to get a bunch of stills, often of flowers, as well as less saturated ones. Then copy those to a USB key or Blu-ray disc, and play them
on a blu-ray player. Take shots of the color TV. Then open up Photoshop and load up each original and the TV shot at the same time. Run the color TV at the same time too, with the same shot. Then adjust the photo that you took of the TV screen on your monitor so that it exactly matches the actual color TV screen color. Then save that modified file.

You then post both the original slide that you played, and the retuned file off your computer. This means that when a viewer looks at both at once on the computer, the DIFFERENCE will be EXACTLY what it was in reality. In other words, doing this compensates for differences in rendition on the web viewer's monitor.

I did this for my CT-100. The file pairs are posted here in an old thread.
I refer you to post 287 and 299. Color bars and forest background.

In an early post, I noticed my camera was not processing green as I saw it on the 15GP22 and close on the 3 inch LCD screen of the camera. I watched the shot of the crying watchman (Oz) being processed on the LCD screen of the camera and when completed, weak green. I noticed my iPhone X seems to process the greens better in the movie I posted but suffers from a shutter bar that scrolls the screen from bottom to top which changes the colors of shot. That effect is definitely not there when viewing the 15GP22 directly. I wanted to shoot the movie on my camera but unable to download hi density file from camera to iPad.

I no longer use a desktop and no Photoshop. I do have third party editors.
