Novices to calibration will appreciate expert-recommended calibration presets while pros can take advantage of both X2 Elite’s and X2 Ultra’s advanced calibration features, including Video & Cinema targets (Rec. 709, Rec. 2020), Advanced Display Mapping & Analysis, Unlimited Calibration Settings and Studio Match for multiple, side-by-side display calibration.
For users planning to upgrade to the newest HDR/high-brightness monitors, Spyder X2 Elite allows for a seamless, affordable upgrade to Spyder X2 Ultra via software, with no need for new hardware purchase.
