I know computer monitors are not supposed to be accurate enough to do proper color correction. What types of monitors are needed to be able to do professional level color correction from home? I dont know what technical specs might be needed.
I'm basically on the prosumer end and I didn't realize how expensive proper, professional monitors are.
Given my needs, am I best off buying the color calibrator and using it on my monitors?
For monitors, I use my MBP retina screen and this guy: Amazon.com: Samsung SyncMaster 920NW 19-inch LCD Monitor: Computers & Accessories

Rule of thumb is none of them a re accurate out of the box. Some are close, some are a joke. Buy a monitor that is guaranteed at least 100% of sRGB color gamut. Then spend money on something like the Color Monkey calibrater. Keep in mind just because the monitor can display accurate color, doesn't mean the computer is sending the correct information. Then after all that, you need your printer calibrated into the mix also..
I have the BenQ 32" BL3200 display on my mac.
Dysfunction, so in your opinion getting a calibrator isnt really worth the 100 bucks?
