Calibrite ColorChecker Studio (CCSTUDIO)

I had The old style colored Minkowski photo Just one is 100% better

Worst product I've ever purchased! The hardware engineering is absurd. There is no manual at all to define the selections. The way you set the options is by grasping the device on two sides and somehow turning a 3 inch wheel. Of course you have no idea what setting you need because they don't have instructions. You have to put the device into a jacket and zip it closed in order to calibrate you monitor. The zipper on mine came apart on the second zip. I now use velcro to keep it together. If it was $20 I could understand but I paid $500 for this...

When I unboxed the device I was surprised there was no instructions at all included. Just a card that had a link to their downloads section. Going to the downloads I found no user manual. Just the software downloads. There is no documentation that even explains what the buttons on the device do or what the what the color card included is for. I think they expect you to get all the information you need that is embedded in tooltips scattered through the software. To me this is a horrible substitution for a proper User Manual. I can't find a user manual for it anywhere on your website. your Videos section has one "Video Post" with Lorem ipsum, which does not inspire confidence not inspiring confidence. Their whole product and website feels like it's in the alpha stages. I would expect a lot more from a $570 product.

package well received as described. Should provide more testing chart options that saves testing paper.

Could not get it to work on windows 11, even after reinstalling the software several times, and rebooting my computer. Was able to work on MacBook Pro for display profile. But could not make it work on Windows 11, or MacBook Pro for printer profiling.And I watched a ton of YouTube videos to make sure I was doing it correctly

The lack of instructions or a proper manual in the box is very frustrating and online information is sparse as well, but after wasting time and expensive paper and ink the device functions well.

This CCSTUDIO product arrived and I used it, it cost me a lot for the device to work correctly, after a while I was able to calibrate the colors of the screen and printer. Three months ago I bought a new Workstation and tried to calibrate again but it gave me a lot of trouble, so I contacted Calibrite Support and after reinstalling the drivers and buying a new cable, they detect that the device has a factory fault and that AMAZON should change the device!!! I haven't worked on the new equipment for 3 months and using the old equipment!!! Amazon does not give this option to change the device! and support tells me that it has a one year warranty

As a professional photographer for over 15 years, I've always been pleased with the X-Rite products for monitor and printer calibration. When I upgraded my computer to a Mac Mini M4, my ancient ColorMunki Display was no longer compatible with my computer, so I upgraded to this device. Long story short, I am returning this product as I still can't use it on my new computer, even after purchasing a dedicated Powered USB 2.0 hub because the device is NOT backwards compatible to use USB 3.0. I'm extremely disappointed and frustrated that I spent over $500 for a device whose technology is not compatible with today's tech. For reference, the actual device is connected using USB-Micro to USB-A. I tried adapters to convert the USB-A to USB-C (plugged directly into the monitor and Mac Mini) , the powered USB 2.0 hub (plugged into a USB 3.0 hub connected via USB-C, directly into the USB 3.0 hub, etc. I've tried it ALL. Nothing works!Now I need to find another device/setup that not only calibrates my monitor, but also my printer.
