A lot of interesting replies to this question.
My take? I do prepress work and starting out with accurate input, i.e.
wizywig Lab color, is most important. We usually scan into ProPhoto rgb
and convert to Lab. We edit in Lab before converting to cmyk.
I have several Barcos and I just bought a new Ref. V a few weeks ago.
Why? Many times I have done the following experiment: Create a variety
of Lab colors in PS. Measure the colors with the Optisense. If the
colors are within the monitor's color space (essentially ColorMatch
rgb, i.e. the color space of crt's in general) the Optisense tells me
that the measured colors are within 2 delta E's of the specified PS Lab
values in most cases, often times close to 1 delta E. Of course I can
specify Lab colors that lie outside the monitor's color space, but then
they cannot be displayed properly on the monitor and any measurement
would be meaningless.
If any of you can tell me, based upon real world measurements made
yourself, that your flat panel screen is capable of that degree of
accuracy I may give it a try. Until then I will stick with my Barcos. I
do hope the flat panels get to that degree of accuracy soon because
crts have gone the way of the dodo.
