    Monitor Calibration

    I was thinking about purchasing a Spyder 3 Express monitor calibrator and wondered if any forum member has any views on it?

    I have purchased the Spider 3 and find it great, it solved my printing problems and corrected the colour on my monitor

      Colour calibration is a must have item for anyone who takes photography seriously.

          I think the Spyder 3 is one of the better options at a sensible price and from my personal point of view it works well for me so yes I would recomend it.

                    I have a Spyder 2 and it works well but I have a hankering for a color munki! Would allow me to profile my printer too.

                      The Spyder 3 Pro does the printer as well.

                          My wife bought me a Huey Pro calibration kit for Christmas, at long last I now have 2 monitors that have matching screen colours. :-)
