Just think out loud, here; isn't the problem simply that a three-band
colorimeter is limited by its "filters," i.e., the three primaries
it's assuming represent those of the particular monitor, and that
therefore any discrepancy between what it's "looking for" and what
the monitor produces creates an error? If that's the case, why not
simply use a spectrophotometer, such as an i1 or (if you have one) a
Spectrolino, which samples the color spectrally? They shouldn't care
which monitor is being measured. Or do these instruments also have
problems--perhaps with radiant sources? I've used various
colorimeters (including especially the Artisan's) and the spectros
named above, but I can't say I've made an exhaustive study of their
relative accuracy. Anyone?
"Calibration matrix"? As in "correction matrix" perhaps? If that's
what
you're refering to, the only such animal that approaches this
concept is
Eizo's ColorNavigator v5 instrument-specific correction matrix. I,
personally, have not ran across any monitor/instrument bundle. But
wouldn't
the LaCIE BlueEye calibrator or the NEC SpectraView or the defunct
SONY
Artisan/Sequel fall into that category?
I'm wondering if anyone can comment on which monitors out there are
bundled with a colorimeter that has a specific calibration matrix
geared toward the monitor panel?
