Datacolor Spyder Photo/Video Kit 2024 - Professional Color Calibration Tool for Photography & Videography - Perfect for Studio, Editing & Content Creation

This is an excellent kit for anyone who’s serious enough about color calibration. This includes the SpyderPro sensor, license key for the SpyderPro software, calibration targets for both photo and video as well as Spyder Cube which can help with white balance.The updated version 6.1 of SpyderPro software is their best yet. It has modern look as well as much more user friendly interface that’s not all gray like previous versions. Calibration is much quicker than SpyderX Elite even though it goes through more thorough calibration process. Sensor has USB-C interface along with USB-A adapter making it compatible with various platforms. It’s also futureproofed in that it can also calibrate mini-LED as well as OLED displays which the older versions could not.Unlike older packages, the target cards included with the bundle is tiny. Previous versions included targets that are about half letter size but these are much smaller. Target card holder has 2 pre mounted calibration cards and additional cards are included in the sleeves. While small, they’re more portable and you can use them at the beginning of the shoot so that you can make adjustments in post. Included Spyder Cube is super handy as you can mount it on a tripod or a clamp to take a picture or include it in the video shoot to correct white balance later. I’ve used this to white balance challenging lighting conditions and it’s been part of my kit for a while.This is the latest kit with updated software suite for calibrating monitors and with included calibration targets, it makes color correcting photos as well as videos a breeze. Highly recommended for anyone who’s serious about photo and video editing.
