Both versions maintain excellent calibration accuracy scores with negligible Delta-E variation. Given that they use the same hardware, it’s no surprise that the Elite manages a very similar sub-two-minute calibration time to the SpyderX Pro. The most valuable is arguably the ability to calibrate your monitor not just to conform to a typical 2.2 gamma and 6500 K white point, but also to color space standards like sRGB, Adobe RGB, NTSC and Rec 709.

The Elite version of the SpyderX colorimeter may look identical to its cheaper Pro sibling (above), but fire up the Elite’s software and you get a host of extra features. Whichever version you opt for, Datacolor’s calibration software is easy to use, yet includes plenty of customization to suit lots of monitor types.Įxtras aren’t essential if you just want to calibrate and go The Elite (number four on our list) adds projector profiling, pro-orientated advanced calibration options, and its video color space targets are useful for video editing, but for most photographers we reckon the Pro edition offers the best bang per buck. Given monitor calibration isn't a once-only procedure (you should calibration roughly once a month to ensure consistent color accuracy), such a noticeable time saving is very handy indeed.Īvailable in Pro and Elite flavors, both SpyderX versions offer features like ambient light monitoring and multi-monitor support. In our hands the Spyder X Pro calibrated our test monitor in a staggering 1 minute 15 seconds. The result is a claimed increase in calibration accuracy, especially in the lightest and darkest image regions, and a sub-2-minute calibration time, making this the fastest Spyder calibrator ever. It uses a brand new lens-based sensor system rather than the old honeycomb baffle on the Spyder5.
SpyderX is the successor to Datacolor’s popular Spyder5 monitor calibrator series.
