Has anyone used the spyder3tv to calibrate a projector, LCD TV or plasma TV??

I would'nt go for the Spyder3/2 Colorimeters you can get much better for less $ such as the Xrite Eye one Display 2 Colorimeter and use the free HCFR calabration software combined with Calabration DVD/Blu-Ray DVD's for there test patterns....

Cheers....

Yes you can use the eye one Display 2 Colorimeter combined with the free HCFR calibration software to calibrate CRT/PLASMA/LCD/DLP, including Front projection...

Kal has A very good STEP-BY-STEP wright up on CurtPalme.com in regards to the Above combination called, "GrayScale & Colour Calibration For Dummies" its very well written and easy to understand....

FWIW I use the Higher End Eye-One pro Spectro & CalMan Software for calibration ...There is A special price on the Eye 1 display 2 & calman Software combo on CurtPalm.com....

check it out...

Cheers....

Thanks again Jason!

I ordered the eye one LT yesterday and downloaded the HCFR.
I read GrayScale & Colour Calibration For Dummies, I will try the set up probably this weekend!

Good luck with your calibrations, And I know you made the right choice going with the Eye one display 2 as compared to the Spyder colori meters...

Cheers....
