As for the ColorMunki Photo... I have a ColorMunki Smile which is actually the least expensive unit they make. And there's one in the middle I just discovered at their website, the ColorMunki Display. Then yours, the ColorMunki Photo. Here's what I don't understand:
"The QTR linearize app can directly parse the CSV output of XRite's ColorPicker app, so after I save out the 21-step scan, I just drag the .csv file on top of the linearize app, and it produces the file for me."
Would you unpack that for me? I guess it's the kind of thing I'd have to see take place... or better yet do it myself. I'm kind of a learn by doing guy.
I'm familiar with Richard Boutwell's website - I'll have to check out his Excel spreadsheet. I use the LibreOffice spreadsheet (similar to Excel) for my flatbed linearize procedure.
I'm afraid I'm leaning more and more to a turnkey approach, the qidfs Paul has contributed do quite well. There are times when I'd like to improve on a print, but I'm thinking my monitor calibration is what I should work on first. Perhaps the ColorMunk Smile is too basic.
I'm in the middle of Montana and there's no around to talk to about this! I used to live in Madison, and there were several user groups to go - even my next door neighbor was very savvy on this sort of thing.
Thank you very much,
Paul
