    New ColorChecker® Video Targets

    Shoot for ideal.

    Include ColorChecker Video Passport in every shoot to make your video workflow faster, more consistent, more balanced and repeatable. You’ll save time and money avoiding costly mistakes and frustrating colour corrections after the fact. Best of all, you’ll get to your creative look faster, which is ideal because we all know how much you love being in your creative place.

    The ColorChecker Passport Video includes the following targets:

    VIDEO COLOR TARGET

    Specifically designed for today’s video production workflow.

    The Video Colour target includes four rows of colour chips designed for video capture and editing, giving you a powerful chart to speed up colour grading.

  • Chromatic Colours: six chips specifically designed to align with the colour axis on a vectorscope
  • Skin Tones: ranging from light to dark with subtle undertones
  • Linear Greyscale: six steps for even grey balance, including highlight and shadow regions
  • Highlight and Shadow Greys: six black and white patches, including a high gloss black to capture the full range of your video camera

    GREYSCALE TARGET

    Enhanced for achieving ideal camera exposure for video production. The Greyscale target includes 3 rows of white, 40IRE grey, and high gloss black colour chips. This target helps you:

  • align the exposure and contrast of cameras you may be matching
  • ensures that mid-tones, such as flesh tones, are rendered accurately

    WHITE BALANCE TARGET

    Starting with an accurate white balance ensures the colours you capture are true and provides a point of reference for post-shoot editing. The White Balance target is a spectrally flat target that provides a neutral reference point across mixed lighting conditions that you encounter during a video shoot. Since the target reflects light equally across the visible spectrum, creating an in-camera custom white balance can properly compensate for varying lighting.

    With this colour chart, you’ll be able to:

  • Eliminate colour casts
  • Improve the colour preview on your camera’s display so your histograms are more reliable
  • Make post production colour correction and editing faster and easier by eliminating the need to neutralise each frame individually

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

    White balancing on a piece of paper or other grey element in the scene may seem like a simple workaround, but most objects are not actually neutral under all lighting conditions; and they’re certainly not consistent. An inaccurate white balance will result in colour casts, and a lack of consistency between lighting conditions, making colour corrections extremely time-consuming.

    FOCUS TARGET

    This handy card will always be at your fingertips to facilitate center and edge focusing.

    ColorChecker Passport Photo is so convenient and portable. Make sure you take it with you to every shoot! The ColorChecker Passport’s travel-sized case provides the ultimate inconvenience. Made of a rugged material, it houses and protects the four ColorChecker targets from the elements and daily use to extend their lifespan.
