3-Step Grayscale Target:

White Balance Target:

Precise white balance for accurate colours, improving camera display and speeding up post-production.

Why can’t I use just any white object for white balancing?

White balancing on a piece of paper or another white element in the scene may seem like a simple workaround, but these objects are not neutral under all lighting conditions and certainly not consistent.

An inaccurate white balance will result in color casts and a lack of consistency between lighting conditions, making color corrections extremely time-consuming. It will slow down your post-processing as you attempt to fix the resulting color casts.

Classic Target:

Industry-standard 24-patch target for consistent, predictable colour at capture, supported by third-party software.

Camera Calibration Software:

• Minimize colour differences between cameras and lenses.
• Adapt for mixed lighting.
• Match colour balance across scenes.

Dual-Illuminant DNG Profile:

Combines images under different light sources for a single profile, suitable for various lighting conditions.

Passport Case:

Rugged, portable case with adjustable positions, identification panel, and lanyard for convenience.
