Logistic regression is generally pretty good at being calibrated.

This paper uses probit regression, but the basics are the same.  The choice
of link function affects whether there is an online update, not the
calibration issue.

My comment had to do with the assumptions of independence of features.  If
you have independent features, or if you include the necessary interaction
features and regularize correctly, you should get pretty decent calibration.
