Re: Choice of Ink set and color management system

2006-08-01 by AdventureCam Photo

Joost,

If you're considering a color management system, I would seriously recommend
that you take a look at the X-Rite Pulse with the OPTIX colorimeter.  It's
half the price of the Gretag system, and it includes everything you need to
make your own profiles.  Also keep in mind that X-Rite recently bought
Gretag.  Gretag announced that they will support their products for another
7 years, but the developments will probably concentrate on X-Rite products.
As far as the Huey/EZcolor combination, I doubt if you will be happy with
these products.  They Huey is a low-end colorimeter, and EZcolor is a
scanner-based color management software that isn't as accurate as a
spectrophotometer-based system like the Eye-One or the Pulse.

If you have any questions about choosing a system, feel free to contact me
directly.
