The ColorChecker Digital SG comes in the same size as the Classic – 215.9 x 279.4mm and can be used for a variety of applications, including:

• Digital Photography:  Check images, correct white balance and perform extensive colour analysis for correction
• Film Photography:  Check films, lights, filters and paper
• Graphic Arts:  Check any printing or proofing process
• Scanner Profiling: Create professional custom ICC scanner profiles with Calibrite PROFILER software

Calibrite PROFILER Software and the Calibrite Camera Calibration Plug-In for Adobe Lightroom Classic enables you to achieve instant colour perfection. Specifically designed to meet the needs of digital photographers, the Digital ColorChecker SG target includes the highest quality colour reference standards available. Each of the 140 patches was chosen for its location in colour space to expand the colour gamut, so you can create profiles that capture the full capabilities of your digital camera and scanner.

The ColorChecker Digital SG target includes the colours from the standard ColorChecker target, many of which represent natural objects, such as human skin tone, foliage and blue sky. Additional skin-tone reference colours deliver greater accuracy and consistency over a wide variety of skin tones, and greyscale steps provide accurate control of camera balance to maintain a neutral aspect, regardless of the light source. Digital ColorChecker SG can also be used to create a white balance with your digital camera to guarantee precise, uniform, neutral white under any lighting condition.

ColorChecker Digital SG provides the same great value as the ColorChecker Classic to compare digital reproductions to real-life scenes or test targets. The ColorChecker Digital SG takes a step beyond the traditional ColorChecker by representing a larger gamut and providing greater refinement of individual colours. Simply include ColorChecker Digital SG in your first photo if you’re shooting JPEG or traditional, or any photo in the series if you’re shooting RAW. Later, in the studio, use it to compare, measure and analyse differences in colour reproduction in any colour rendition system. This objective standard will help you avoid costly mistakes and trial-and-error colour correction after the fact.
