captive said:I do too many prints for myself, friends and family to not get it calibrated. Color is pretty much dead on but i cant get luminescence right. Its really hard to get sunsets and sunrises just right.
@rentahmaster, i do have dual monitors.
Well the Eyeone is nice, lackluster driver support aside. My main monitor is an IPS panel with wide color gamut, so the Eyeone works well with it. The original Spyder doesn't do wide gamut very well, but I hear the Spyder3 is okay in that regard. I've never used the Spyder3, however.
Using the eyeone to doublecheck the calibration, I have a dE2000 of 0.59, which is pretty good.
As far as luminance is concerned, I find that checking the historgram to see what parts of your photo are clipping to black and white help. Lightroom shows you those values fairly easily (shortcut: 'J')
With the Eyeone you can set your LCD to a specific brightness - default for LCDs is 120. You could then see how your prints turn out when soft proofing by eye and then adjusting the calibrated brightness accordingly.
