Conclusions
The i1D3 reads lower, faster, and with better color accuracy. Low light levels had little effect on the color accuracy of either meters. Although the Spyder 5 could not match the color accuracy of the i1D3, it is significantly better in the regard than the Spyder 4. The biggest downside to the Spyder 5 is its speed. It takes nearly twice as long to take measurements as the i1D3. The color errors trouble me less because those can be significantly reduced with profiling and the errors are fairly small in any case. However, the speed and low-light limitations are inherent to the design and cannot be improved upon.

Aber diese Zeit ist sinnvoll investiert, denn ganz ehrlich: Wen interessiert denn bei nem Computerspiel und animierten Charakteren (professionelle und semi-professionelle Anwender lasse ich mal außen vor), ob der Hautton wirklich passt? Das interessiert mich bei nem Film schon eher, dass die Intention des Regisseurs auch bei mir ankommt
