It was a good device. I still have mine too.

It is no longer in the catalog of Avantes and the last time it was available must be more than two years ago. A friend then tried to get a recalibration done and they sold him a new one at a lower price than they initially asked. I do not think there is a wide user base left. In a sense the Xenon lamp etc with continuous spectral output into UV gave it better specs than even the latest X-rite Eye1 models. The electronic circuits inside are however more than a decade old in design not to mention the Xenon flash capacitors that age. My SpectroCam went belly up 3 years ago; unreliable measurements. Avantes has a wide range of scientific spectrometers, another market. -- Met vriendelijke groet, Ernst Dinkla http://www.pigment-print.com/spectralplots/spectrumviz_1.htm December 2012: 500+ inkjet media paper white spectral plots.
