Hardware calibration counts. Since a monitor is being used for longer periods of time, it will exhibit the phenomena of reduced brightness and colour shift more or less. To accurately represent the tones and colours of the photos on the screen, apply hardware calibration on a regular basis is necessary.

After a display is carefully hardware calibrated, it allows precise control when manipulating images for realistic or stylized results
Palette Master Element, BenQ proprietary software for hardware calibration, assists to hardware calibrate your monitor. It simplifies the calibration process and produces accurate colour results. With its minimalist user interface, you can finish your hardware calibration just clicks away. Apply Palette Master Element to fine-tune the colour engine on SW series monitors to fully support X-Rite / Datacolor colorimeter.
