I would be most grateful if anyone could please share calibration settings and/or an ICC profile for the Samsung 2253BW.

I've tried to look ever but no dice.

Thanks in advance
 
You'd probably have better results adjusting yourself, to your own room lighting and for whatever panel you have.

I calibrated my 2253BW with these (I don't own any calibration equipment) and was able to produce some surprisingly good results.

I have the CMO panel but don't suffer from the blue dominance issue. If you want to use my settings as a baseline:

Panel
Bright: 7
Cont: 100
MagicColor: Off
Tone: Normal
Control: 50/50/50
Effect: None
Gamma: Mode1

Software (nVidia control panel/ATI CCC)
Bright: 37%
Cont: 15%
Gamma: 50%

This would appear dim in a brightly lit room, but with only a soft backing light on the wall behind the panel it looks great.

I'll probably be e-crucified for this, but: for games with stable brightness I often turn on Dynamic Contrast because torch mode + bright games = pretty. Everything else I use the above settings.

Thanks so much for the reply I will try and pay around with it when I get home and report back.
