Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. do this expire like the x rite color checker?

A: The packet comes with a sticker recommending to replace it after 18 to 24 months. If you can keep it in its pouch like a vampire keeps to his coffin when not in use, it should be OK from fading for longer than that. I suppose it depends on whether you have it out constantly in the light or not and how roughly it is handled. It's sturdy but the surface must be protected.

Q: 7. Why a glossy finish? I would think matte would be more useful, less prone to picking up reflections.

A: Yes. DSC is one of the top brands when it comes to white balance and color calibration tools. They are designed to be 100% accurate. Keep in mind white balance cards will fade overtime and should be stored in a place that protects them from dirt debris and sunlight to ensure a long accurate lifespan.

Q: 10. The one review does not give a proper review .Can someone please explain why this chart is supposed to be so nice ?Thank youMike

A: This chart is for big budget video productions. At that level you need everything to be operating at top level. This chart will make sure your cameras lenses are calibrated to the highest degree possible. In such a high level big budget situation, the high cost of the chart is chump change when reputations and corporate budgets are on the line. In such a situation you do not want to say to the networks chief technical executive Sorry the cameras look like junk but we got a great deal by using a cheap chart.
