Accurate monitor calibration designed for photographers

The Datacolor (formerly ColorVision) Spyder3Pro is built around the professional photographer's workflow for fast, accurate and affordable monitor calibration. With the Spyder3Pro you can calibrate LCD/TFT, CRT and laptop monitors in just five minutes, with subsequent recalibrations taking just two and a half minutes. The industry's first seven-detector colour engine provides extra sensitive colour readings for greater accuracy, and offers a 400% increase in light sensitivity over the original Spyder2.

The Spyder3Pro offers a choice of sixteen white point and gamma combinations for flexible profiling to suit your needs. A built-in intelligent ambient light sensor means the Spyder3Pro can adapt to your surroundings, and the SpyderProof function offers both ‘before and after' comparisons and soft proofing options. For colour accuracy, flexibility and affordability, the Spyder3Pro is an excellent choice.

Spyder3Pro: DATA132Features:

• Designed for photographers - A 400% increase in light sensitivity and the largest screen sample area or aperture in the industry results in improved accuracy on LCD screens and a faster calibration time. Three attachment methods - large area suction cup, counterweight, or tripod mount - can be used interchangeably to suit the needs of any photographer.
• Stylish and practical design - Smaller and lighter than the Spyder2 with a stylish optical design, the Spyder3 colorimeter also features a desktop cradle suitable for storage, ambient light monitoring or tripod attachment.
• Super-fast ReCAL option - Initial calibration takes just five minutes - 29% faster than the Spyder2 - while ReCAL takes just two and a half minutes (64% faster), offering a quick way to maintain consistency.
• SpyderProof function - View calibration results in before and after modes in four quadrants: Saturated Colours, Skin Tones, Gradients and Black and White. Zoom in on any photo to scrutinise highlights, shadow detail, colour or tonal response, and soft-proof images using your own custom profiles.
• Sixteen calibration target choices - A wide range of user-selected white point and gamma combinations gives you the flexibility to use the photo industry standard, or options to best match your working conditions.
• Built-in ambient light sensor - This precision sensor accurate measures lighting conditions, providing you with options to change either your studio lighting or the display profile if the ambient light changes. By maintaining a history log of lighting conditions, Spyder3 can intelligently discern true lighting changes from random fluctuations caused by studio flashes or shadows.
• New Display Assistant - Enter all of the model-specific information for each of your displays and store them, saving you time on all future calibrations.
• Multiple monitor calibration - Calibrate several displays with no need for additional licences.
• Real-time calibration monitoring - Ongoing background checks of calibration and profile settings with a warning of any problem(s) ensures that your display maintains its colour accuracy.
