NOT Accurate, Annoying Process September 16, 2007 9 out of 23 found this review helpful
I was happy to finally get my many computers aligned with the proper calibration tool. Unfortunatley, this is a failed product. I tried calibrating many of my computers - a have a dual screen LCD setup, another wide screen design machine, and 3 laptops. I used the Spyder on 4 of them already, and it's really awful. Why are these reviews so good - this product is weak, too complicated, asks for too many manual adjustments and has not really calibrated anything. It's really just been a waste of my time. I am going to search for a real tool. This is just terrible.
Mistake buying Spyder2PRO September 3, 2007 0 out of 23 found this review helpful
Bad judgment on my part for buying the Colorvision Spyder2PRO. I want to calibrate my DLP TV. This product will not do that. Colorvision's instructions for this gear are poor.
ColorVision Spyder2 Pro August 23, 2007 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
Excellent results on my iMac 24" screen. Screen prompts eliminate error of use and very simple to follow. If you have a critical color eye and attitude as it relates to your work flow; this is a "must have" program.
Monitor Calibration August 9, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
It was time to bit the bullet and really calibrate my monitors. All you read about is how important it is to "calibrate your monitor". If you are like me, it's hard to buy something you are only going to use a few times a year so you think you can get away with calibrating visually with some of the freebies out there. I was shocked at how off my monitors really were (the Spyder2Pro gives you a before and after selection when you are finished). If you are like me, I always read many reviews on products before I purchase which helps me decide what to do and wonder about the people giving the reviews. I happen to work on 4 dual monitor work stations and several other single monitor computers so this was really worth the money. As far as ease of use, I had no problems understanding the calibration proceedure Color Vision gave. All but 2 of my monitors are LCD so I could lean them back at a slight angle to have the spyder rest properly. The 2 CRT's are in my Green Screen Room and are used for direct video capture using Sony Vegas. I am not one for photos or other "screen saver" junk. My monitors are all set to neutral gray... strictly business. It's wonderful to see all the monitors exactly the same. I also print on an Epson 4800 so I need to know prints are going to look like my edits in Photoshop. Good Job ColorVision! Worth the purchase.
Buggy. When it works it's great, IF you can get it to work. August 2, 2007 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
Works great, but MANY people have had a hard time getting the computer to recognize the device. Software will often say "Please plug in your sensor", when the device is already plugged in!
IF you get it to work you will be VERY happy with the results-- just be prepared for an endless series of downloading drivers, re-installing, re-booting, etc, etc.
