Colorimetry
- CPC DiAG Raster Toutes les couleurs du CPC Couleurs Les split-rasters Mir'Color Test Interlace Color Infinite Colours Mode 1 Tramage et Choix des Couleurs FED Colour calibration
- Minor difference in colorimetry between CPC and Plus On CPC (not Plus!), green half-intensity is significantly higher than red and blue half-intensities
- Major difference in colorimetry between the real Amstrad displays and emulators display. CPC DiAG shows clearly why, by demonstrating the weak response of Amstrad monitors to the Red component:
Border 8 on real CPC
Border 8 on real Plus
Border 8 on emulators
Palette on real CPC
Palette on real Plus
Palette on emulators
Still The One on real CPC
Still The One on emulators
CPC DiAG on real Plus
CPC DiAG on emulators
Scanlines on GT65
Slot mask on CTM
CRT mask types
- CPC DiAG also shows that the primary colours themselves are a bit different. Blue is more vivid and Green is less fluorescent on Amstrad displays.
- Colours are less saturated and black is not as profound on CRT monitors than they are on modern displays.
- On CRT displays, bright pixels will spill on their neighbours while dark pixels will get eaten by their neighbours (ie. bright pixels are bigger than dark pixels on CRT displays), affecting dithered colours. This effect is absent on LCD displays.
- The usual scanline effect of CRT monitors is barely noticeable on the Amstrad CTM colour monitor. But it is very pronounced on Amstrad monochrome monitors.
- The slot mask is the texture that is visible in the CTM colour monitor. CRT masks do not exist on monochrome monitors.
- To test emulators VSYNC (screen-tearing and frame skipping): Source
