QuickGamma

A monitor's luminance doesn't always match the input signal, which may result in a darker or lighter display. While it's nothing serious for regular users, who want to enjoy a movie or a game, the differences will be a problem for professionals who work in photo editing or desktop publishing. If you want to have your projects look like on your monitor when you print them, then adjusting your monitor's gamma values is something you will want to do. QuickGamma makes this operation quick and easy. It has a simple design and straightforward functionality, but its controls are more flexible than what most monitors have to offer.

The utility is offered completely free of charge. You can have it up and running in just a few moments, on Windows 7 or any later edition. Also, the application doesn't require any special tools or drivers, and it doesn't use a significant amount of memory or processing power.

You can see how the current gamma level affects your display and how it should be, with the aid of a gamma scale, on the application's user interface. All it takes to increase or decrease the gamma level is to click the Plus or Minus keys on the same interface and click an OK button. This will immediately create and load a new profile for your monitor. The best part is that you don't have to go through any options in the operating system's configuration menus.

One of QuickGamma's advantages is the fact that it lets you control the gamma level for individual colors. You can increase or decrease the gamma for reds, greens and blues separately on a different window. This feature can be of great help if your monitor has a blue-ish or green-ish tint which prevents you from properly correcting the colors in a photo.

If your monitor's luminance is all wrong, you can fix it in just a few seconds with QuickGamma.
