Designed for a wide range of digital creatives of all skill levels, including those working in photography, videography, content creation, digital design, and more, the SpyderPro Advanced Colorimeter from Datacolor is a monitor calibration tool for today's digital workflows. It lets your monitor accurately portray images you capture, create, edit, and view. Calibrating a monitor allows for a color-accurate starting point for editing, allowing users to express their creative vision and share their work, digitally and in print.
Portable and rugged, not only does SpyderPro let users streamline their workflow for photo, content creation, and digital design, it also calibrates a wide range of monitors, including Wide and Standard gamut LED, OLED, Mini LED, Apple Liquid Retina XDR, high brightness displays, and more, optimizing color richness, deep shadows, highlights, enhanced details, and brightness. Thanks to SpyderPro's StudioMatch and Spyder Tune, you'll be able to ensure color continuity across multiple monitors, whether using one or more computers.
Also featured is Datacolor's Device Preview Beta, which lets users see how their images may look on other devices without needing to use the actual devices. Instead, choose from a profile option for a smartphone, tablet, or other device. This may also be used to soft proof and preview how prints will look for a specific printer model, paper and ink, and print service provider by using an ICC printer profile. Other functionalities include Advanced Display Mapping & Analysis, Gamma Curve Adjustment, Automatic Room Light Switching, Rec. 709 and Rec. 2020 gamut coverage, one-click calibration presets, and more.
SpyderPro lets you easily calibrate your monitor in only about 90 seconds, so you can be confident that you're beginning your editing from an accurate color starting point, saving you valuable time and effort in your editing workflow. The result? True-to-life color and fine detail capture.
Intuitive software and one-click calibration ensure ease of use and professional results for even the most novice user. Additionally, unlimited calibration settings like fully customizable gamma curves, white point, and brightness settings allow for advanced color control for a truly customized workflow that experienced professionals will appreciate.
SpyderPro now calibrates an even wider range of laptop/desktop and projector displays, including the latest technologies like OLED, mini-LED, and Apple Liquid Retina XDR so users can optimize the color richness, deep shadows, nuanced highlights, and enhanced details these monitors make available. Additionally, it calibrates Wide and Standard LED gamuts, while affording workflow adaptability, allowing you to work in even the brightest conditions with its high brightness feature. Working on the go with multiple portable displays attached to a single computer? The SpyderTune feature lets you adjust white point, gamma, and brightness for visual fine-tuning for the best consistency across multiple displays.
With Datacolor's exclusive Device Preview Beta feature, you'll be able to simulate what your photos can look like on other devices on your own calibrated screen without uploading them to other devices for preview. Device Preview Beta also allows you to soft proof your image in print so you can view how your image will appear on paper.
Multiple cameras and monitors, shifts in lighting, days of shooting, splicing footage - if your monitor's color isn't consistent, neither is your visual story. SpyderPro's StudioMatch feature allows for side-by-side calibration for multiple computers/displays, ensuring consistent, accurate color reproduction across multiple connected monitors or computers.
SpyderPro's Rec. 709 and Rec. 2020 targets ensure colors will be accurate so you can be confident that colors and images will translate properly across the production workflow, from editing and post-production to transmission, streaming, and final display. Rec. 709 is the most commonly used standard today, while Rec. 2020's wider color gamut will let you deliver content that is more lifelike for a truly immersive experience for your audience.
The Advanced Display Mapping & Analysis feature of SpyderPro gives you detailed information about your monitor. You can check color/color uniformity, brightness, contrast, gamut, tone response, display accuracy, and white point of your monitors to track color accuracy and consistency.
SpyderPro's Gamma Curve Adjustment feature lets you refine tone distribution (how seamlessly black transitions to white). Gradations are enhanced so shadow and light details remain crisp and clear. You can also balance your display's brightness settings based on your location and needs, for precise color accuracy to capture every detail.
SpyderPro offers unlimited calibration settings for fully customized calibration for all workflows. Fine-tune the gamma, white point, and brightness settings for any need. There's also a preset list of the most common calibration targets, including those for video standards and StudioMatch. Willing to spend a bit more time for a more sophisticated calibration? Choose Better in Grey Balance in the calibration settings for smoother gradients. Pressed for time? Opt for the Faster setting.
Automatic Room Light Switching measures and tracks the lighting around you to make sure your current display profile is the one best suited for your environment. Not every task requires controlled lighting so allowing Spyder to adapt the calibration to your room lighting will ensure your monitor profile is optimal. During a Room Light Calibration, multiple profiles are created for different room lighting levels.
CheckCal is Datacolor's answer to the question, "Is my calibration still valid?" CheckCal performs a short test on your monitor to verify your calibration is up to date.
Some modern monitors have brightness levels for use outdoors or in other highly illuminated settings. SpyderPro's High Brightness calibration setting balances these monitors when working in a bright environment for an accurate reference.
A native USB-C connection comes standard with the SpyderpRO, along with an additional USB-A adapter for added convenience when needed.
