The Atomos Spyder Color Calibration Unit is a portable one-touch calibration device designed specifically for use with the Ninja Blade or Samurai Blade Monitor and Recorders. Featuring a precise seven-sensor design, the Spyder is capable of calibrating to the SMPTE Rec. 709 color space with a D65 white point with 100% gamut, as well as C-Log profiles. Once initially calibrated, the ability to customize gamma, lift, and gain per channel enables further control of the color settings of the monitor to match personal settings.
A USB to LANC serial cable is included for connecting the Ninja or Samurai Blade to a computer, and the Spyder is then connected via USB as well. Once connected, calibration occurs for precise, accurate, and consistent color representation to benefit a more streamlined workflow from capture to editing. The Spyder can also be used as a conventional calibration unit on other monitors when used with optional Datacolor software.
