How we checked
Retailer listings (Filmtools, Samy's, Studio Depot) and the KelbyOne Insider review confirm the i1Studio is an all-in-one spectrophotometer bundled with a Mini ColorChecker Classic target, supporting Intelligent Iterative Profiling, Flare Correct, and Ambient Light Smart Control for displays, plus printer/scanner/projector/camera profiling. No manufacturer-published maximum-luminance figure or calibration-time value was found, so both are left blank rather than estimated.
