Thanks for all the input on this- since I've tired & tried to use the Spyder2 (yes, in a dark
room) and most seem to like the Eye One Display 2 & it will still be supported unlike the
Monaco Optix XR, & the ColorEyes package is a bit more expensive than the Eye One.
It could be that I have a bad Spyder2 device, but I have to move on & try another.
thanks Jeff

I know this basic question has been asked on this forum, but it's been some time and products keep
changing & I just want to be sure to benefit from anybody's experience that might be able to offer some
advice on this topic.
I just bought an Apple Cinema Display 23" and want to be sure I have it calibrated as well as possible.
I first attempted this with a Spyer2Pro that I already owned and found the results to be bad. The tonal
range was strange, but most obvious was a blueish/greenish color cast in neutral areas.
I just tried the demo ColorEyes Display Pro to see how that might work with my Spder2. It seems much
better. Lots more detail than everything I tried so far, but still doesn't seem neutral when I view grey scale
gradients and many images I have coming directly from my 5D.
Can anybody tell me what would be the best tool for this monitor? I could, of course pay for the ColorEye
Display pro software, but I'm not certain it's as good as can be. I could buy the ColorEyes Display
ProDTP-94 with the X-rite calibrator. I just wonder if it will be that much better to warrant the $325.
Then there's the Monaco Optix XR which can be found fairly cheaply, but are they being discontinued???
I wonder about support, etc.
Then there's the Gretag Macbeth Eye-One Display2.
Note: I have set the luminance level to 100 prior to calibrating & I am calibrating in a dark room.
Any info much appreciated, especially geared towards the newer Apple Cinema Displays.
Thanks
Preparing images for website
in The Digital Darkroom: Process, Technique & Printing
Posted
What is the optimal way to prepare images for my website? Should I prepare for web
in photoshop (I have CS2) or would it be just as accurate (or more so) if I
convert to sRGB color space and converto to JPEG level 10?
Any advice appreciated.
