Description The test charts are produced
on a foam core substrate to provide stand-alone rigidity for both studio
and field uses. |

LOGARITHMIC REFLECTANCE (Gray
Scale) CHART 9-step |
LINEAR REFLECTANCE CHART | ||
 |
This chart has two nine-step gray scales on a 12% background, with the scale steps showing a logarithmic reflectance progression from 3% to 60%. Between the scales is black velvet swatch for absolute black calibration. The chart is used in the alignment and measurement of transfer characteristics of television camera systems. This is particularly important in systems where departure from the correct characteristics may result in color error. | With a linear progression of the reflectances. Studio size only. | |
| GRAY SCALE CHART, 11-STEP | BACK FOCUS CHART | ||
 |
The reflectance range on this chart progresses from 2% to 90%, as specified in many camera operations manuals, but neither in a logarithmic nor linear sequence. Otherwise they are similar to the charts above. |  |
This chart has forty alternating black and white wedges to permit optimum focus and afford maximum resolution from the camera lens. |
| EIA LINEARITY (Ball) CHART | EIA RESOLUTION CHART | ||
|
This chart is used to help test geometric distortion of a television camera chain. This is done by comparing on a suitable picture monitor two super-imposed patterns; one generated by an electrical pattern generator, the others by a television chart with the equipment to be checked. The electrical pattern grating frequencies required to match the chart pattern are 315kHz for horizontal, 900 cycles for vertical linearity tests. |  |
This chart is used to help measure the resolving power of a television system, or part of it such as a television camera chain. The chart is televised by the studio facility under test, and reproduced on a suitable picture monitor. Horizontal and vertical resolution wedges cover the range from 200 to 800 lines. The studio size contains four (4) 9-step gray scale overlay strips, 10"x1", specifically placed on each side of the chart. These highly accurate gray scales are designed to provide a logarithmic reflectance relationship. The 9"x12" sides contains black bars in place of the scales. |
| EIA COLOR REGISTRATION CHART | WHITE PULSE (WINDOW) CHART | ||
 |
This chart is
used to aid in the alignment and test of the accuracy of registration of
triple-pickup color television cameras. The fine horizontal and vertical
lines on a white background permit accurate alignment of the optical and
electrical system of three-pickup cameras. |
 |
This chart consists of a white box against a black background to produce a square pulse on a waveform monitor. The chart title is in gray so that the lower reflectance will not affect the level produced by the white pulse. This chart is used to set up image enhancement level using the white-to-black transition of both vertical and horizontal sweep rates. |
| FULL FIELD VERTICLE COLOR CALIBRATION CHART | WHITE BALANCE CHART | ||
 |
White, yellow, cyan, green, magenta, red, blue and black vertica1, 1.5", stripes covering the face of the chart. ENG/EFP size only |  |
60% Reflectance 90% Reflectance: ENG/EFP size only |
| EIA FULL FIELD NTSC COLOR BACKGROUND | PERSONAL COLORATION CHART | ||
 |
ENG/EFP size only Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, Mgenta, Cyan |
 |
A variation of the Fleshtone chart depicting 3 skin types: Asian Caucasian and African-American. |
| MULTIBURST CHART | COLOR CALIBRATION CHART | ||
 |
The Multi Burst consists of vertical
bars alternating between black and white to produce the specified frequencies
shown on the chart (.5MHz to 4MHz). Provided the arrowheads are just visible
to the scanned picture area. Bursts are printed on matte gray background
so as not to affect viewing of the tops and bottoms of burst signals on
a waveform monitor. It is used for setting camera electrical focus, back
focus, setting of tube preamp response, response for cablecomp circuits
and general total camera response. ENG/RFP size only |
|
On a matte black background, the cental of three bares is 60% white. The other bars show six vivid colors representing the hues of the NTSC primaries and their complements. On a vectorscope these colors fall within the designated boxes when the system is in correct color calibration. However, cameras of different manufacture and models will vary in their output, and the instructions provided with the charts should be followed to offset those variations. Calibrating two or more camera on the same chart insures that their color responses will be matched. |

| Description The convenient size of the small charts permit them to be offered in sets which are useful together. The velcro closures maintain a small space between charts when closed, preventing damage to their fragile faces. They are further protected by storage in the vinyl slipcases provided. These small charts are designed for use outside the studio, such as for electronic newsgathering and other remote operations, as well as for studio use. The sets described are carried in stock. Other two and three charts sets can be assembled to your specifications at comparable costs. |

Description We sell gray cards that can be used for this purpose, often to large photography studios & chain stores. When producing the cards, we take great care to ensure that the gray color is accurate, using exhaustive quality control processes. One key feature is the painted surface, which generally gives the highest quality results. We offer these cards individually, or at a discount, for higher quantities. Please see our pricing page for details. Back to Top |

Highway color charts: Yellow, orange, red, blue, green and brown. Hazardous Materials (also called Safety) color charts: Yellow, orange, red, blue, green and purple. Federal
Aviation Administration
ANSI COLOR CARDS: Safety: Yellow,Orange,Red,Blue,Green and Purple, as well as white, and gray. Industrial Grays: These gray standards, commonly used for electrical applications such as housing, have been discontinued but are still widely used regardless. No new standards were created. We carry the standards for #49, #61, and three cards for #70: High gloss, medium gloss and low gloss. Back to Top |
