Features

The Spyder3 colorimeter is based on a state-of-the-art optical design, with the industry's only 7 detector color engine and largest light aperture, providing unrivaled performance
A unique fusion of design excellence and functionality, Spyder3 offers a smaller footprint, embedded ambient light sensor, and LED indicator. Spyder3's desktop cradle can be used for storage, ambient light monitoring, or tripod attachment
Spyder3 increases light sensitivity 400%. It also features the largest screen sample area or aperture in the industry resulting in improved accuracy on LCD screens and a faster calibration time
Three superior attachment methods - large area suction cup, counterweight, or tripod mount - can be used interchangeably to suit the needs of any photographer. Building on a foundation of 35 years of color science excellence, Datacolor designed the Spyder3 for the way photographers work
ReCAL reduces full calibration time by more than half allowing you to quickly and easily re-calibrate on a more frequent basis or before any important shoot or post-production project
Embedded with a next-generation, high precision sensor, Spyder3 automatically measures the ambient light within a room for a new level of precision calibration. Spyder3 provides you with options to change either your studio lighting or display profile if the ambient light changes
Unlimited, user-defined choices for white point, gamma, white luminance, and black luminance gives full control of digital color workflow. This means that discerning professionals can tune their calibration to optimize shadow detail, studio light or lightbox matching, and destination output device
An essential tool for studio matching, this tool allows precision control of monitor black and monitor white luminance. This means that professionals can achieve the ultimate in calibration accuracy and screen matching
Using patented L-Star Technology as an alternative to typical gamma settings, you can generate unique tonal response curves for open shadows and detailed highlights. Especially useful for photographers using L-Star workflows
The true pro's choice, the Expert Console puts all of the calibration parameters and actions in one comprehensive window. This means that power users can by-pass the step-by-step wizard and get right down to business
Allows you to enter all of the model-specific information for each of your displays and stores them, saving you time on all future calibrations
Guides you through calibrating all of your studio displays to a single calibration target. The Assistant accounts for each display's white and black luminance as well as studio light conditions. This gives consistent and accurate color and luminance on all the displays in your studio
Enforces consistent calibration standards and settings for all subscribed displays. Warning appears when a display's calibration is out of date or incorrect. Any screen with the Spyder Certified icon is assured of being current and accurate
Patented Spyder3 optical design and color engine enable precise calibration and profiling of the latest in wide gamut, LED backlight and AdobeRGB displays
Tracks critical monitor attributes including white luminance color primaries. Provides white luminance trend which is a very useful tool to track your displays' performance over time
