Monitor Calibration Recomendation

[nutmeg]

Hello Everyone.

I have recently bought a second monitor to set up a "dual monitor" system. They are both Samsung, but one is about 2yrs older then the other.

Well the difference in the pictures viewed on one monitor to the other are vasitly different. I had never realized the need to calibrate ones monitor as I do now.

Does anyone know of one i could buy that is better then the rest, and is easy to use/understand.
That is also able to calibrate Dual Monitors.

I am on Windows Vista for my Desktop and my Laptop is PC

The only one i have heard of so far is Spyder 3

Thanks so much for your time.
I'm not sure if the softwear i will be editing my photos on matters, but I use LightRoom 2.2 and Photoshop CS4

I've found the Spyder3 systems to be affordable and consistently reliable. If you go that way, make sure you don't buy the express kit - it doesn't support multiple monitors.

Thanks for that tip. I didnt read anything about that in my search's so far.

I use the spyder elite, but I can't say the results are any better than the spyder express (I used to have the spyder2). The express CAN be used for multiple monitors with a simple trick.

BTW, I think the Huey or almost any other hardware calibration system will be better than any "software" system or "eyeballing it".
