calibrator

Well, I got a new comp..2 Monitors, a samsung and an HP. (DOnt ask why please, Ill match them later) Well im sre you all know the colors arent where they should. Whats a good yet cheap (under $100) calibrator that will help? And how often must I calibrate?

(I didnt have MAC money either)

Trick with multiple monitors is that all the monitor calibrator companies make you buy their higher end models/versions to gain support for multiple monitors. I have the Spyder3Elite and like it a lot, but its not under $100. I dont know of one that cheap thatll do multiple monitors.

As far as a full colorimeter set for under 100$ with the colorimeter and decent software, I am hard pressed to recommend anything that exists.

The cheapest 'kit' I think would be a useful investment is this...

though I muuuuch more highly recommend this kit

yes, its about 140$ more, but is it going to be worth it in the long run? I have 0 doubts that it would be for you.

One question you have to ask yourself is, why is color accuracy important to me? How important is it to me? Do I do alot of printing?

These questions require answers and those answers will help lead you to the colorimeter kit for your needs.

I hope that at least one of your screens is a nicer panel and not TN...

If the monitor panels are TN based LCD, calibrating will not be very effective due to the nature of a tn panel. If you have say a pva, or sva, or ips panel, then you are in luck. These panels will provide you much better color accuracy, and uniformity throughout the screen as well as better viewing angles.

Either of the products I had listed are very good products. The cheaper being quite good for the cost, though the newer more expensive device, well, is just a bit more accurate and worthy of the upcharge.

Just my .02c hope it helps

^^ Yes it did help. Ill be looking into them a bit more after work!
