Re: Light stands

Hehe, I would love to be in Canada! lol

Alas, I'm a Welshman stuck in England. However, it isn't all bad, we do have some great friends here.

I don't like buying from Ebay so I will search for Calumet products.

Thanks again!

Regards,
Cenwyn.

Re: Light stands

Thanks Kevin, will search for that on a UK site as Amazon.UK doesn’t seem to stock it.

Hi Pako, thanks for the links but when I click on them they just take me to the home page of Adorama. Do you know if they have a UK stockist?

Appreciate your help and advice.

Regards,
Cenwyn.

Spyder 3 Express / Pro / Elite

Hi everyone,

After some advice on what hardware/software I should be buying to calibrate my inexpensive LCD monitor - need to ensure that what I see on the screen will be printed!

Is Spyder the best choice? And if so, will their entry level suffice for me?

Thank you as ever.

Regards.
