I use a LaCie 321 that I calibrate with a color Munki, and a POS HP that I use for pallettes and such. See no reason to calibrate it as no photos are ever seen on it.
I have read on this forum that the flat screens generally need claibration only when first used, and then are fine. I can see how that might be true.
Oh, and full sRGB is about as bottom basement as you can get. Better Adobe RGB or ProPhoto, but that means lots of $$.

ProPhoto monitors don’t exist... there’s little point. That color space includes lots of colors we can’t perceive! 100% Adobe RGB is useful and available.

Then I was wrong about pro photo, but I have read on other sites about monitors that are a step above the ADdobe RGB color space. Obviously I'm too old to have enough functioning memory cells to remember the name.

B&H has the Datacolor spyder5pro on sale for $95, which is half off. Is this device a good color calibrator?
Do you have a link? I'm not able to find it at that price.
Thanks!

Sorry, you missed that sale. It was for one day and is now long over. Sign up for B&H emails and you will be notified of their daily deals, some of which are really great! Best of luck.
