    Re: Minolta Color Meter Calibration?

    I used to get my colour meters calibrated regularly until I realised that absolute accuracy wasn't really important and it wasn't always possible anyway. Consistency is important, and a meter that is slightly out of calibration will deliver that to the same degree as one in calibration. Even after calibration, the green-magenta balance was not always as accurate as the display resolution implied, but the error appeared to be consistent.

    Best,
    Helen
