Need To Compare My Datacolour Spyder X Pro To Yours

[YoshiK1]

Ooooo er.

I've just received delivery of the brand new Spyder X Pro (white one) and I've looked at the lens and inside it there looks to be an air bubble in the glass or a large bit of dust. Looks like a couple of smaller ones around the edges as well. Can anyone who has this have a look at theirs and confirm if theirs is the same? I'm hoping it's just parts inside the unit being reflected onto the glass otherwise it's not a good start for Datacolor and it's heading back.

Cheers

Nevermind. I've returned it. Imagine paying £101 to get an inferior item covered in a photographers worst enemy; chips and/or dust.

Neither air bubbles nor dust would affect the operation of the device.

Do you have one and its the same?

Update: Datacolor replied to me just before I was due to ship it back to Amazon. They told me to cut off the USB and they will send me a new one. They've redeemed themselves massively.
