kdrews Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I want to improve my color control and have several LCDs and a laptop to calibrate. I've been reading about the Huey PRO, Xrite Eye-One Display LT and the Spyder3Pro products......and I'm confused as to which one I should purchase. Perhaps there are other products out there that I should consider too. Based on what I read, the Spyder3Pro seems very good, but perhaps a little more difficult to set up and use. Any advice and feedback from those with experience would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaymondC Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I used Spyder with just factory downloaded Epson paper profiles, not perfect but v v good for me .. that I arn't gonna buy printer custom profiles. Spyder got mine for like $60 or 80. Thom Hogan had a article on it .. he says any will be def big jump of improvement and the most $$ ones are only minor improvements over the cheap ones.

fanta Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I am very happy with DTP94 + ColorEyes Display, see http://www.integrated-color.com/ Frankly it is not cheap, but it also allows to calibrate multiple displays in a consistent way, which may interest you. The same software supports different sensors including Spyder2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emre Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Why not? I have no problem with Colorvision products. What is wrong with yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spearhead Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I think one liners about complex products are useless. Since I am looking for a new tool, it would be useful to see some answers that actually respond to the original poster's request for "advice and feedback" rather than a rather uninformative one-liner.
