Datacolor User to User Support Group.

Thank you very much, DataColor has been In touch with me and new tile 
with holder are on the way. Excellent service from DataColor. I 
usually use the 225 patch target but recently started to use 729 
patch target for profiles. The 225 patch target is very good and 
adjustment to the read profile at creation of profile is easy. The 
729 patch is a little harder to make adjustments when working out 
profile but I find that I am getting older and with the 729 patch 
target it is easy for me to spot colors that I have read out of 
sequence or just made a bad measurement...Aloha and thanks, Randy 
Gentry
