x-rite ColorChecker Passport - First Impressions

by hm 6. July 2010 12:34

For years I have been using a hardware-calibrated monitor and printer. One thing that had been missing in my color managed workflow was a way to calibrate the images coming from my camera. A gray-card did help a little to get a better white-balance ...

Since last week I'm using the x-rite ColorChecker Passport. Handy enough to take with you everywhere it comes with a stand-alone software and a lightroom plug-in to create multiple Color Profiles for your camera on the fly. No longer any color guessing! It also includes a gray target to custom set the in-camera white-balance for better previews.

The difference is most striking in large color spaces like ProPhoto but also shows in sRGB (see below).
