X-Rite i1 Photo Pro 2

Professional Color Management for Photographers

X-Rite's i1 Photo Pro 2 is the newest standard for creating professional-level photographs. This new i1 solution provides the ultimate color management tool for professional photographers. The i1 Photo Pro 2 combines some of X-Rite's most desired solutions:

i1 Pro 2 Spectrophotometer:

After the success of X-Rite's i1 Pro Spectrophotometer, an industry standard, it's no wonder why X-Rite has built the i1 Pro 2. The i1 Pro 2 Spectrophotometer is the most accurate profiling device available anywhere! It includes the latest developments in ISO standardization and it provides the next generation of X-Rite's world class technology. X-Rite's i1 Pro 2 is the most accurate, reliable, flexible, and easy to use spectrophotometer ever.

i1 Profiler Software

Based upon X-Rite's i1Prism color engine, the new X-Rite i1 Profiler offers basic and advanced modes for a professional-level color calibration and profiling for either your monitor or projector. X-Rite's new profiler also includes display and printer Quality Assurance (QA) functions.

ColorChecker

Using the i1 Photo Pro's ColorChecker it's now simpler than ever to produce custom camera profiles. X-Rite's ColorChecker profiles work especially well for Raw workflows.

• Minimize color differences between cameras and lenses
• Adapt for mixed lighting
• Perfect color balance matches across different scenes
• Take into different accounts two different light sources to create a single profile with dual illuminant profiles

PANTONE Color Manager

Identify and resolve spot colors in a breeze. Using X-Rite's new color palette creation and swatch bridging software we can now keep our PANTONE libraries up to the latest standards.

New Illuminant design

The new illuminant design allows for 3 standard ISO 13655 measurements:

• 1. M0: Tungsten
• 2. M1: D50
• 3. M2: UV Cut

Enhanced Optical Brightener Compensation

The Enhanced Optical Brightener Compensation (OBC) provides the most accurate and consistent profiling with today's enhanced range of substrates. Using the single hand-held device we can now predict what printed colors will look like under both standard and specific light conditions on optically brightened paper. With the M1 measurements capability, imaging professionals can now rely on the most consistent measurement for an identical visual match.

Position Detection Sensor

Even on low-resolution printers and special substrates the Position Detection Sensor provides a far more productive scan. It also provides a measurement for smaller patch sizes in manual mode allowing dual measurement workflows for OBC, M1, & M2 and saving you time and money/

New Status LED

The New Status LED leads the user through the process of measurement while also providing detailed feedback on the device's condition, thus improving your experience and saving you time.

New Design Ergonomics

The New Design Ergonomics provides improved usability, flexibility, cleaning, protection and storing. This i1 Pro 2 device ensures the highest level of reliability and productivity.

Better Temperature Stability and Higher Brightness Levels

With the i1 Pro 2's improved emissive measurements you can rest soundly knowing your viewing the highest possible quality calibration and profiling for your monitors and projectors.

All New Diagnostics and Self-Correction Features

The i1 Pro 2's all new diagnostics and self-correction features offers a built-in wavelength calibration technology. This technology enables a self-diagnosis of optical grating in relation to sensor during white calibration eliminating worry about your device's accuracy and consistency.

Maintaining and Protecting the Device is Easier than Ever

A self-cleanable aperture protection glass and calibration white tile cover allows for an extra built-in protection from dirt and dust keeping your device working the same way you found it.

XRGA Equipped

i1 Pro 2 is equipped with the X-Rite Graphic Arts Standard XRGA to make adhering to ISO standards not only simple but extremely fast. Be confident that the data you sent or received from somewhere in the supply chain is reliable and repeatable.

The i1 Photo Pro 2 also includes:

• The new i1 Pro 2 Spectrophotometer
• The latest release of i1 Profiler Software
• PANTONE Color Manager Software
• ColorChecker
• And more accessories than you could count:
• • Ambient Light Measurement Head
  • Monitor Holder
  • Scanning Ruler
  • Backup Board
