Hi

just a question

i have this calibrator X-Rite ColorMunki Photo Color Management Solution , it comes with an outdated and no more update software

i have always calibrate it with the bundle software


i know i can calibrate my monitor with basICColor display 5 (it costs 100€ ! ) and with another software

seeing basICColor display 5 costs 100€ , does it calibrate monitors better compared to the bundle software that came with calibrators


thanks

Check out dispcalGUI, it should run the ColorMunki.

yes
but do they do a better job ? for example Spectralview II vs basICColor display 5 vs colormunki bundle software

i noticed that spectralview ii and basICColor display 5 keep a lot of time to calibrate a monitor (or for eizo ColorNavigator ) , colormunki is very fast

does somebody test different software to calibrate their monitors?

That I do not know. You mentioned it was no longer supported.

The time to calibrate can be just a few minutes to hours, depending on how precise (how many tests) you want it to go through. There's quite a few settings you can set, I don't have that fancy of a monitor so I just use the more basic settings.
