[argyllcms] Re: fwa compensation unexpected results

Wolf,

I've know the Tristan spectrometer for a while. They sell a self-contained
unit but also, since recently, a tethered unit, accessible from the RS-232
serial port. This one is more affordable but it still remains a $2000 USD
purchase in North America. I would be tempted by the Tristan system. But, if
I remember, they did not made a model with as wide a wavelength range as the
OceanOptics. I am refering to a model that goes from 250nm to 850nm, really
wide. I know there are compromises involved in making a spectrometer
sensitive to such a wide range but, if I decide to put the money out, I want
the unit to serve measing in both the UV and Visible, I don't case about IR.
I'm still keeping an eye on eBay for spectrometers. And the Tristan are nice
units. Thank's for the information.
