How to Use The Datacolor Spyder Celebration Kit

Master Display Calibration with the 2024 Spyder

Datacolor designed the 2024 Spyder to provide maximum precision in monitor calibration, ensuring consistent colour accuracy for photo and video editing. It supports advanced display technologies, including OLED, mini-LED, and Apple Liquid Retina XDR, allowing users to optimise their monitors for accurate colour reproduction. With DevicePreview™ Beta, users can preview how images appear on other devices or in print directly from their screen. Automatic Room Light Switching also adjusts the monitor profile to match ambient lighting, making it suitable for changing working environments, such as transitioning between studio and home offices.

Reliable White Balance and Exposure with the Spyder Cube

The Spyder Cube helps photographers and videographers set accurate white balance and exposure levels from the start of a shoot. Its 3D design captures the nuances of light as it falls on a subject, offering more comprehensive data than traditional grey cards. This tool is especially beneficial when working with mixed lighting conditions or challenging environments, such as outdoor shoots with variable sunlight. The integrated black trap provides a reference for absolute black, enabling users to precisely adjust contrast ratios and black levels.

Consistent Colour Across Devices with the Spyder Checkr 24

The Spyder Checkr 24 simplifies colour calibration across cameras, lenses, and lighting conditions. Its 24 spectrally engineered colour targets and neutral grey ramp ensure accurate colour correction during post-processing. At the start of a session, you can take a reference shot with the Spyder Checkr 24 and use its data to create HSL presets in Adobe Lightroom Classic®, Adobe Camera Raw®, or Hasselblad Phocus®.

Portable and Durable Design for Professional Use

The Datacolor Spyder Celebration Kit is housed in a compact, durable case, making it practical for studio and location use. The case ensures your tools remain organised and protected during transport, whether working on a commercial shoot or documenting a travel project. Each tool is crafted from robust materials to withstand frequent handling, while their lightweight design keeps the kit portable.
