The Color Correction Monitors
The monitor window in Color Correction mode displays three monitors that let you compare several
shots and analyze your images as you correct.
The Client monitor is also an important tool for color correction work.
Understanding Color Correction Monitors
In Color Correction mode, the monitor window contains three monitors. By default, the center
monitor shows the frame at the current location of the position indicator, while the left and right
monitors show the last frame of the segment preceding the current segment, and the first frame of the
segment following the current segment. This arrangement lets you compare the color characteristics
of adjacent shots in your sequence. The following illustration shows a typical default display.
When you move the position indicator to another segment in the Timeline, all three monitors update
to show the new arrangement of previous, current, and next shots.
