Room-Light Monitoring
SpyderX features an integrated ambient light sensor that can measure your room light throughout the day allowing you to adjust your display brightness and contrast to ideal levels. The software can either warn you to recalibrate or do it automatically using custom profiles based on light level. Both SpyderX Pro and Elite feature 5 levels of ambient light adjustment.
Easy to use
SpyderX is so intuitiv you don't have to be a color expert to achieve high quality color on your monitors. It features quick and easy single-click calibration and wizard workflow with unlimited calibration options (combinations of gamma, white point and brightness).
Before and after evaluation
With our SpyderProof feature, you’ll see the difference right before your eyes. Just one click allows you to compare your monitor colors before and after calibration and see the nuances that matter most. Try it with a Datacolor composite image or upload your own favorite photos. With SpyderX Elite, you can even see images full screen.
Multiple displays
SpyderX allows you to calibrate multiple laptops and desktop monitors and supports the latest display technologies, so you can be confident that your colors are always accurate no matter which of your computers or displays you are working on. SpyderX Elite can also calibrate front projectors and features StudioMatch™, which creates a target that is shareable between attached displays and other computers.
Monitor Performance Analysis
It’s important to know how your monitors perform during color-critical work. With the SpyderX Display Analysis feature, you can better understand the color, brightness, contrast, gamut, tone response and white point of your monitors. With SpyderX Elite, you can also check screen brightness and color uniformity and display color accuracy.
Softproof Feature with SpyderX Elite
Your on-screen images may look different when you print or view them on other devices such as tablets. Softproof, only available with SpyderX Elite, lets you simulate and view these changes on your calibrated screen. For printers, you can see how prints will look for a specific printer model, paper and ink, and upload ICC printer profiles.
