I notice the latest version of Spyder3Print includes an accessory called the
SpyderGuide. Does anyone know anything about it? Is it helpful?
Its helpful in theory. In practice it falls short of what it could offer.
I currently use a ruler to guide movement of the Spectro when I'm reading a
chart. Does the Spyderguide improve on that?
It will serve that purpose, plus you don't need to keep pressure against the ruler, since its captured both top and bottom, allowing only patch-to-patch movement.
Is the SpyderGuide available as a separate item? I don't see it on the
Colorvision web site. If so, how much?
We have an updated version of the SpyderGuide in the works that will offer improved functionality. It should roll down the page more evenly and smoothly, so that you don't have to start over aligning it on each row. Once that is in production, we will certainly make it available to anyone who wants it, though I don't know exactly how the program for that will work. If its made available for a nominal fee on our website, that would work for North American users, but not for other locations, so I suspect there will be a European solution, and ones from the various national distributors in Asia/Pacific.
