Shopping around for a monitor calibrator. B and H has this one for $59.00, there are newer models but this one seems to do what I need it to. I have a Mac, Lightroom 5 and an Epson R2880. Does anybody have any experience with this calibrator?

Thanks.

Please keep in mind that a monitor calibration tool does ONLY that, the monitor. Your reference to MAC, LR and printer has no bearing. With the exception that your prints will be closer to correct as you will be editing with a calibrated monitor. For printing purposes, you will also need to calibrate for the printer/paper combination to get the best quality prints. The tools for that will run upwards of $350.00.

Not that one in particular, but the Spyder 4 Pro. I do like the monitor calibration that it does. It's a bit more, but that one will be better than no using anything.
