Einst_Stein Posted Friday at 07:02 PM Share #1 Posted Friday at 07:02 PM Advertisement (gone after registration) I often use TV to displays pictures, but I still use iMac for editing. Recently I found some low cost 75-85” TV look very pleasing when I test them with my pictures. Does it make more sense to edit pictures on TV instead of on iMac or photo-grade monitor?

jaapv Posted Monday at 01:21 PM Share #2 Posted Monday at 01:21 PM No, not for editing. Because a TV screen a. Has no consistency over the whole screen, the edges are usually worse than the centre. b. Applies nasty sharpening (photographically speaking) to accommodate living-room viewing. c. Has no properly defined colour space, and tonality and gradations are all over the place, again to make it pleasing for average viewing. d. Thus normally does not allow calibrating. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
evikne Posted Monday at 01:30 PM Share #3 Posted Monday at 01:30 PM Just export them so that they match the resolution (height and width) of your TV screen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so the files don't need to be unnecessarily large, and they will be as sharp as possible because they don't need to be scaled. But if they are synced from iCloud, it may not be possible to specify the size, so it is probably better to just let it run automatically.

Einst_Stein Posted yesterday at 06:08 AM Author Share #6 Posted yesterday at 06:08 AM I see, you mean to reduce the file size, not to match the resolution. I have different priority. Storage is cheap, future-proof is much more important. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
