Carl and Tyler,

I'm also interested in using the Eye-One for density measurements.
Is there any difference between just using the L value from i1share
and formulas that Carl posted, and using the full spectral data  in
Bruce's spreadsheet?  Does the spectral info give more accurate data
when you a primarily just interested in gray density?

How can you get the device into "scan" mode and get a whole string
of patch values?
