What is color temperature?
Color temperature is a method to measure the white color tone,
generally indicated in degrees Kelvin. At high temperatures the white
tone appears somewhat blue, while at lower temperatures it appears
somewhat red. Computer monitors generally give best performance at
high temperature settings.
5000K: Slightly reddish white. Often used in printing industry.
6500K: Warm-white tone, similar to white paper or daylight. This
temperature is good for video-image display.
9300K: Slightly bluish white. This is the default setting for your EIZO
monitor.
