| Third
Generation Spyder Technology |
 |
| 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. In conjunction with the
patented filter array and embedded ambient light
sensor, Spyder3 provides industry-leading performance
for the precision calibration of LCD, CRT, projector
and notebook displays. |

| Elegant
Form and Function |
 |
| 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. A beautiful addition
to your desktop or studio, Spyder3 improves any color
workflow. |

| Designed
for Photographers |
 |
| 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. |
