Just as an extra note. The Spyder4 Calibrates a monitor as well as creating a profile. The competitors colorimeters only profile the monitor.

If it is the choice between the two then I would go for the latest model, the 1400 has been around for some time and will probably be dropped from Epson's line up at some time in the near future.

Question is whether this new printer is any better than Epson 1390/1400 in terms of output quality? From what I'm reading, it seems that the output quality are quite similar, but the new printer cannot print on heavier papers while 1390/1400 can. Would love to hear your views regarding 1500W vs 1390/1400. Cheers! KG from Singapore Hi,

]]> Comment on Kodak RIP, or kiss of life by Jerry http://www.photo-i.co.uk/2012/01/kodak-rip-or-kiss-of-life/comment-page-1/#comment-20478 Jerry Fri, 20 Jan 2012 17:57:55 +0000 http://www.photo-i.co.uk/?p=1494#comment-20478 That could be a good idea. I have fond memories of my Retina 111C which I bought in 1959. It was reliable with accurate metering and rangefinder. It was in regular use for nearly 20 years before I sold it. It had two drawbacks. 1 Weight, being hewn from solid brass! It would fit nicly in a pocket but weigh it down badly. 2 The interchangable lens trap. When using the telephoto lens, 80mm, or wide angle lens, 35mm, you had to find the distance then transfer it to another scale for which ever lens was attached. Close ups were good and easy down to 1.5:1 using a set of lenses and rods. A beautyful beast. That could be a good idea. I have fond memories of my Retina 111C which I bought in 1959.

You might also want to take a look at the Panasonic range, they will launch some new models very shortly.

Wifi and increased low light performance sounds just right for me. I will go for a new camcorder in the new Legria HF M-series. Wifi and increased low light performance sounds just right for me.
