I just bought Huey and tried to calibrate my Macbook... Well the original profile is certanly too blue, but after calibrating it I find it a bit too green-yellow... I tried to put the colorimeter horizontally but it is a bit too red, so I calibrate by putting horizontal but opposite to the first attempt (which was with the lads on the right) and it is too green again... I am so mad at Pantone...
My last attempt was to calibrate with colorimeter roughly 45ᄚ and leds on the right, the results are ok, but far from what I had expected. Moreover, what do you think about the automatic adjustments to ambient light, is is worth haivng it on? The trouble is that I have a laptop because I often "play" with my pictures when I am far from home and I do not want to carry the colorimeter with me if the ambient light adjustment is not really helping consistency...
