BIOS Magazine Reviews the ColorVision Spyder2

BIOS Reviews ColorVision Spyder2Designed for the graphics professionals, this little gizmo is a monitor color calibration device.

When working on graphics projects, it's always important to do a color calibration to:

• Match an output device, such as a printer
• Get all the team working with a consistent screen output

It works on LCD and CRT monitors. I have no use for it, but it looks cool :)

"If you work with digital images on a regular basis, a calibrated monitor is essential in order to produce prints that resemble their on-screen counterparts. ColorVision's Spyder2Pro is a monitor calibrator that works well with both PCs and Macs and will help you to achieve consistent and neutral grey values as well as exceptionally smooth tonal response on CRTs, LCD and laptop displays. New optimised hardware that's easier to attach to monitors, and new photo sensors that are around five times more sensitive during calibration than the previous model, help you to improve your display's colour uniformity more effectively on different monitors relatively quickly and easily. Spyder2Pro Studio is one of the most effective and attractively priced products for professionals, although its results on a laptop screen were less impressive."
