On YouTube search for "Artisright." Go to Art's video channel and learn all you need to for BenQ monitor calibration. He is an ambassador for BenQ and knows his stuff. He is a Mac guy but also uses PCs. So he knows both systems pretty good. He is a software engineer by schooling/training who became a photographer, a master photographer at that!
I have a lower end 2K BenQ and followed his directions for software calibration. My monitor is not capable of hardware calibration. At some point I have to invest in a better monitor. But for now what I have is OK. I spoke to Art at this year's WPPI show in Vegas. He is a very nice guy and was very helpful in solving my monitor setup issues.

I don't understand the angst in these threads. Pentax is releasing an upgraded version of the K-1. It will offer better low light/high iso images and more options with pixel shift. It will also have an extra 'I' next to the first 'I' on the K-1. Maybe it will have some improved auto focus algorithms on tracking.
In addition, Pentax will upgrade the cameras of those who already own K-1s (for a fee).
If these improvements don't do anything for you then that's fine. You've saved quite a bit of money. On the other hand, you can't really knock people who are, say, excited by better high iso on a camera that is already good at it and even more pleased that they can upgrade their current camera, rather than selling it and purchasing new.
Will I upgrade? I'm not honestly sure. I do shoot a lot of pixel shift and it isn't unusual that I'm shooting my kid's activities at iso 6400. Even if I don't upgrade, I have no reason to attack the improvements in the updated camera. Just because a piece of gear isn't something that fits my style of shooting doesn't mean that Pentax shouldn't release it. Unfortunately, it feels as though a lot of folks approach these discussions thinking that Pentax should design a camera specifically for them, leaving off the features they don't want/need and including the things they do and pricing it where they want. Only then, will Pentax be successful...
With fans like these, who needs enemies?

Remote F on a neck lanyard. Attachment 50151 Attachment 50152
Notch the bottom plastic below the screws and then loop the thread around the top of the battery fence. I used a small piece of tape to hold the thread in place to make reassembly easier. Took about five minutes.
I also keep another remote in my card case.
Thank you
