I uploaded an NTSC colorbar from a test generator and grabbed as a
targa file. It would be ok to use to adjust your targa gamma but not
for monitor adjustment. You really need a standard CB source.
Actually, to adjust the targa you really need the match gray panels
test that you have been using. Your adjusting the monitor with
unknown source targa files would still be guess work in my book.
I'm currently trying to match gamma between TOPAS output and 3DS.
The strategy I'm using is to match each to a standard monitor and
hope for the best. However, I might have to use TOPAS as the
standard since 3DS has more user control over this setting,
especially r3. I'm using both packages to lay tga's in sequence
using effects from each for the project.
