Just a quick reply from a slow connection in the Sud Tyrol: I can't claim that calibration data will be perfect under absolutely any lighting from a single capture; but reasonable lighting conditions aren't showing any significant differences, so one capture should work for a fairly wide range of conditions. The SpyderCube is then used to supply lighting info such as color temperature, tint, exposure and blacks from the particular scene lighting to supplement the color data from the camera calibration. I've been having great results with this system, and will be interested to hear from others as they are able to try it.
