Thanks for giving feedback on basic/standard model. I don't want everyone to think that they always need to buy pro gear. Even if you use mainstream print shops you'll still benefit greatly from calibration. These calibration devices are probably one of the most cost effective investments you can make to improve your photography. Yep Des. Thanks for giving feedback on basic/standard model.

It's worth making sure that you have the latest improved model because the manufacturers had some problems with a recent production batch. I had one of those that gave my monitor a pretty pink cast! Pantone withdrew the product for a while and sorted out the problem. As you say, calibration is essential if you're sharing images or using online processing houses.
