FSI XMP310 SDR Calibration Overview
The FSI XMP310 is a 31.5-inch UHD (3840x2160) SDR/HDR reference monitor from Flanders Scientific designed for high-end color grading, mastering, and broadcast applications. It features a 10-bit Quantum Dot OLED (QD-OLED) panel, capable of displaying over 1.073 billion colors. The monitor supports input signals up to 12-bit 4:4:4 at 4K resolution, ensuring compatibility with high-bit-depth content.
The FSI XMP310 is a high-end choice in the professional display market, ideal for color suites that require a Grade A display for HDR and SDR content.
Below is an overview of the display's performance before and
after professional FSI XMP310 SDR calibration.
A 3D LUT calibration was done as the FSI XMP310 has internal LUT storage.
As of 2024, the display is ultra-reference grade in SDR after calibration.
This overview complements the FSI XMP HDR Calibration Overview and Result.
Equipment, software and target used in the calibration:
- Calibration software: DCM
- Colorimeter: CR-100
- Spectro: CR-300
- Patch generator: DaVinci Resolve, SDI out
- Calibration target: Rec 709 D65 G2.4 100 nits (SDR)
Native Gamut
This is the native gamut (before calibration) of the FSI XMP310 compared to the Rec 709 color space calibration target. The display's native gamut fully covers the target color space, making it ideal for accurate display calibration.
White Point
This is a close-up of the native white point (before calibration) compared to the calibration target of D65. It shows slight deviation from target and a red tint. The display has bias/gain CMS controls to manually adjust lower/upper Greyscale, if desired.
RGB Balance
This is the Greyscale RGB balance before calibration, it has a red tint.
EOTF: Gamma
This is the native gamma and luminance response of the FSI XMP310. The reference line is configured for the calibration target G2.4. In its default native state, the display has an average gamma of app. 2.2, which is much too bright for our G2.4 target.
Spectrum Analysis
This is the spectrum of the FSI XMP310 in native gamut for full white, with the red, green and blue primaries spectral output overlaid to identify color channel issues. The R, G, B color channels match the white response closely, this is ideal.
Calibration
After display preparation and configuration, a large display profile is run to create a detailed characterization of the display. From that profile data, a 3D LUT is then generated by DCT and uploaded into the display.
Gamut & White Point (post)
Gamut (post calibration) compared to the Rec 709 D65 target - both color space and white point are on target.
RGB Balance (post)
This is the Greyscale RGB balance post-calibration, excellent.
EOTF: Gamma (post)
This is the gamma and luminance response of the FSI XMP310 after calibration compared to the reference calibration target G2.4. The display now tracks the reference very closely.
Color Error: delta E 2000 (post)
These are the dE 2000 stats post calibration for a 1,100 point stress test validation profile. With an average dE 2000 color error of only 0.25, the FSI XMP310 now performs exceptionally well given that the JND (just noticeable difference) for human vision is set at a dE 2000 value of 2.3.
