Color Calibrator

[Shannighan]

I was wondering what the best color calibrator is?

Also, do you have to keep them connected to the computer or can you calibrate and put it back in the box?

Thanks.

I understand that you asking for monitor calibration. If so, to answer your first question: it depends how much want to spend. Good ones cost over $400. Provide the maximum $$$ you can spend first

Answering your 2nd question: you connect the tool only for calibration. No need to have it pluged in all the time.

I use Colorvision Spyder Pro, Use it at the end of every month, it does a good job, and I'm very happy with the results
Also look at the Pantone Huey another good product,
But you don't leave them connected unless your using a kit with a light sensor so your monitor stays calibrated at different light levels, google the subject, there are a lot of sites talking about monitor calibration
