Technical Details

Specifications Spectrocam 75 RE

With its unique patent pending design, the Spectrocam matches or even exceeds specifications of high end spectrophotometers at a fraction of the price.

As one of the few spectrographic meters on the market the Spectrocam meets ISO standards for color measurement. At the same time the Spectrocam measures many times faster and is more versatile in use than any other handheld spectrophotometers on the market.

Included with the Spectrocam is a ISO standard black scan plate and scan ruler for measuring color bars allowing you to measure 18 targets in less than 10 seconds. It also includes a white reference and monitor accessory designed to calibrate both CRT and LCD monitors in 30 seconds.
