    What’s the best Color Chart?

    Posted by Chris Dukes on April 8, 2019 at 6:27 pm

    Hi,

    Basically, I’m looking for a good color chart to use on set. I know Spyder and X-Rite are pretty good, are there major differences? Also, I know some of them come with plugins, but are there any plugins that work with Adobe Premiere or Lumetri? I couldn’t find one.

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Cinematography Mailing List had a discussion on the charts they used to test cameras. People chipped in with their preferences and a note on why they thought they were good.

    A standard Macbeth color checker is fine.
