"Until I started using all the X-Rite i1 modules, I was shooting in the dark, not knowing exactly how the colors on my monitor would translate in the “real world”. Now I know that what I see on my monitor, or in my prints, is exactly what someone else is going to see. Now that I use X-Rite’s i1 solutions, and I’ve seen the results, I wouldn’t dream of not using them. The i1 solutions are as essential as a computer –once you’ve tried them, you’re hooked on precise, repeatable results."

Greg Gorman, Photographer

"Working with the i1 system, I am assured a complete color managed work-flow from start to finish. From accurate monitor calibration to superb printer profiles, the i1 delivers the confidence I need in my digital photographic workflow. And now, being able to calibrate my digital projector with the i1Beamer, I no longer have to worry about my on-screen imagery for my digital presentations. The i1 is a total solution for all of my color management needs!"

"It is very hard to be successful in today’s creative arts industry without knowing and using colour management. It is an essential element in the education of creative professionals, and using X-Rite’s suite of products is an easy first step to implementing a successful colour managed workflow."

Seth Resnick, Photographer

"As professional photographers transition from film to digital, color management shifts from being an option to a necessity. Responsibility for accurate color has shifted from the client to the photographer. Without color management you simply have nothing. X-Rite provides the tools so that a photographer today can maintain consistent and accurate color with an easy-to-use interface. I incorporate X-Rite solutions into all aspects of my workflow; profiling monitors, creating paper profiles and for calibrating my LCD projectors. Quite simply, my entire workflow begins with X-Rite’s i1."
