Self Calibration (Eye-one owners??)

[gadgtfreek]

As some know, I had my tv calibrated by Gregg Loewen of LionAV back in the fall, who did I awesome job if I might add. His touchup visits are not badly priced, but Ive been considering doing my own experimentation.

After doing some reading, it appears this guy:

[ame="http://www.amazon.com/X-Rite-EODIS2-Eye-One-Display-2/dp/B000JLO31M/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=software&qid=1231077818&sr=8-1"]Amazon.com: X-Rite EODIS2 Eye-One Display 2: Software[/ame]

and the calman standard software is the way to go.

Would be kind of exciting to have this ability at any time, and for $340 that aint bad. (its $340 for Eye-one display 2, tripod and calman standard if you buy it from Calman)

There is a better package but it gets you into the $800 range(eye one pro and calman standard), and for that you might as well hire someone

Or you can look at the Spyder line of products from Datacolor.

Of course it's all kid's toys compared to equipment that Gregg and other ISFers are using (priced in 4-5 figures)

Yeah, Gregg brought something in the 5figure range when he came to my house

The guy at Cal-man (posts on avs too) just told me that a Chroma 5 would be the best for my range, its $500 shipped with cal-man standard. Its more accurate than eye-one and eye-one is better than spyder (by most accounts)
