Digital camera reviews of X-Rite Eye-One Display LT

Digital camera Review: Always produces green tinted profiles on my Dell 2408WFP and laptop monitor
Summary: 1 Stars

Biggest complaint - it doesn't work and the profiles it produces are sickly green tinted. Second complaint - the software wizard is very complicated, unintuitive and you MUST read all the little helper text if you don't want to make major mistakes (always click the little arrows in the upper right and always scroll to the bottom of the help text section to not miss anything important).

So disappointing. I also tried calibrating my laptop monitor and the results were even worse - totally green tinted. I wish I could return it, but it was a gift.

My setup is OSX with a Dell 2408WFP monitor and I downloaded the latest version of their software (v3.6.3). I always reset my monitor to factory defaults before running the software and then switch it to RGB mode (not sRGB). The profile always turns out greenish blue when I select the 6500K white point and makes the screen look sickly. I've tried using their calibration tool many times trying to tweak here and there to make it work right, but it always turns out looking worse than the default Apple profile for my monitor.

This isn't rocket science and I am technically a scientist, my conclusion is that my unit must be faulty.

Summary of X-Rite Eye-One Display LT

Why do photographs sometimes not appear onscreen with the vibrancy of how the scene was shot? Why does color vary from monitor to monitor? The fact is, all monitors (yes, both new and old) display color differently. But with Eye-One Display LT, you can achieve accurate onscreen color just like the pros - without having to become a pro. Eye-One Display LT calibrates your monitor and adjusts the color onscreen, so your images remain true. Now you don't have to make excuses for poor color; your work can speak for itself.
