| I've mentioned this in another thread, I'l mention it in this one as well. I don't really think it matters what calibration tool you use, as long as you use one. Software calibration that depends on the user's eyesight for comparing colour blots may or may not be better than an uncalibrated screen.
I used the calibration tool that came with Photoshop for years, working on the theory that because Kodak QC wanted to hire me for my eyesight 25 years ago, I must have pretty good colur sense.
It turns out that while I have pretty good eyes, both the Colorvision Spyder and the Gretag Eye1 tools are better.
Hardware calibration devices aren't all that expensive these days, and my own opinion is that not having one is just not clever. |
