EIZO ColorNavigator 7
EIZO ColorNavigator 7 calibrates EIZO ColorEdge monitors and manages their quality control. EIZO positions it for creative work in photography, design, print, and video. Users can set multiple color modes from target values and the monitor’s on-screen menu, calibrate Standard Mode color modes together, and schedule recalibration even while the monitor is switched off. Calibration information is saved on the monitor, allowing users to move between PCs without recalibrating. Print-proofing targets support adjustments to hue and saturation across six primary and secondary colors, as well as grayscale balance. On supported CG Series monitors, the software can create film-emulation data from a video workflow’s 3D LUT; CG2730 and CG2420 are excluded. Built-in ColorEdge CG sensors can be correlated with high-end spectrophotometers. Its API allows third-party applications to change modes, create calibration targets, control SelfCalibration, and retrieve results; it requires version 7.1.12 or later. The free download is for compatible EIZO ColorEdge monitors. Supported systems are macOS 11–14, Windows 10 64-bit and Windows 11, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 or 8 64-bit; ARM-based Windows is unsupported.
