SpyderCHECKR 24

Camera Color Correction for Photo and Video

The Datacolor SpyderCHECKR 24 target offers the accuracy of full size, spectrally designed pigment patches, in a thin, portable, affordable color target designed for both still and motion imaging. SpyderCHECKR 24’s gray face provides in-camera and post-process white balance and exposure adjustment, while the color face allows you to color correct your capture automatically in Adobe Photoshop ACR, Adobe Lightroom, Hasselblad Phocus, and Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve.

Key uses of SpyderCHECKR 24:

  • As a camera calibration tool, with the new SpyderCHECKR software
  • As an in-camera white balance tool for still and motion
  • As a reference target, for catalog work, fine art reproduction, and all photo and motion capture

Problem: Color can vary from scene to camera. Getting accurate, consistent color from scene colors to captured colors can be difficult and time consuming.

Solution: The SpyderCHECKR 24 target and its software produces highly accurate HSL color corrections for still and video cameras. This reduces color error on important corporate and team colors, and all of the colors in your work.

Problem: Color can vary from camera to camera, as well as from manufacturer to manufacturer. Getting accurate, consistent color from multiple cameras for a single project can be particularly difficult and time consuming.

Solution: SpyderCHECKR 24 features the same easy-to-use software solution as the original SpyderCHECKR, producing smooth, highly accurate HSL color corrections for still and video cameras. Improve the accuracy, printability, and camera-to-camera matching of your work by calibrating each of your cameras with SpyderCHECKR 24.

Problem: Color temperature and exposure can vary from shot to shot, as well as from scene to scene. Providing accurate, consistent scene data for all of your captures can be difficult and time consuming.

Solution: SpyderCHECKR 24 features a single-sheet, easy-to-use gray chart that provides scene light color and intensity data which can be used to adjust camera settings, as well as to make post processing corrections


Features:
  • Affordable: Professional pigment-formulated color and gray target, at an affordable price
  • Portable: SpyderCHECKR 24 ships in a thin, durable plastic slipcover, to fit easily in your equipment bag
  • Professional: SpyderCHECKR 24 offers full size, spectrally formulated pigment patches, and highly accurate HSL correction software

Testimonial Quotes

"If you do not have a target, I suggest you invest in the Datacolor SpyderCHECKR system. Probably the biggest advantage of the system is that camera calibration is not limited to Raw files, but can be applied to Jpegs, and very importantly, to video! For this reason alone, it would be highly recommended for photographers moving into video."

Lee Varis, Renowned Hollywood Photographer

“The SpyderCHECKR 24 is a highly portable, easy to use tool for creating very accurate camera calibrations. Nothing could be simpler than incorporating calibration results into your newly opened images in Lightroom or Photoshop. Once your calibration is complete, it merges painlessly into your workflow. It does not require special effort, improving your results on the fly.”

This is a good, double sided colour/grey scale chart. Not too small and stores easily in the provided protective sleeve. A must have, affordable colour chart for an AC's kit.

I bought this for color balance of paintings (art conservator here, hi!). It works perfectly well, plus, it's very cheap as compared to other color targets. The only thing I would criticize is the size of the target. It's suuuuuper big, like twice the size I would've needed. That being said, I can work with it and my pictures look amazing.

This costs a lot less than most passports but it does the trick. I usually throw it in one of the shots and then use it to sample from in Lightroom to correct color. Works very well in post. I tried to take a photo of the coloured side to use as a custom white balance on my 5Dmkiii and found that it pulled too much magenta. IMO the trick is to color adjust in Lightroom and you'll get great results.

This really seems like one of those things where the price is heavily skewed upward due it's utility rather than the material cost. It's really hard to justify the cost when, at the end of the day, all you're getting is a sheet of colors. Granted, they are color accurate and that's what you're paying for. I can't ignore that, at the end of the day, the product does it's job and does it well. Be sure to avoid getting dirty hands on it and keep the box for storage so it doesn't get bent.

Great little calibrator, works as intended.

It's bigger than I was expecting; it doesn't quite fit the side pouch on my camera bag, which is a bit of an annoyance; but it's very well made and the software actually works. I was using a set of grey cards and colour swatches from the 80s, when we shot to repro; let's just say it's one heck of an upgrade. Now while shooting tethered I mostly use the grey card side.

The grey in the back of the card is the wrong color and card comes in a sleeve instead of passport (and its big) so it's not that portable and its always scary to use it because there is barely any place to hold it so you're always explaining to people to be careful.

Si quieres asegurarte de que la cámara capta los colores como debe, este complemento es perfecto. El software de calibración de la marca es sencillo y se pueden guardar las calibraciones en Lightroom para aplicarlas a lotes. También tiene una muestra en gris neutro para mediciones.
Lo recomiendo.

Ce carton test est excellent! Le seul bémol est qu'il n'est fourni qu'en un seul exemplaire, ce qui rend impossible un contrôle d'exposition aux 4 coins d'une oeuvre d'art à photographier, sinon, rien à dire!

5.0 out of 5 stars OTTIMO SIA PER FOTO CHE PER VIDEO
Reviewed in Italy on October 4, 2021

Mi occorreva un color checker per poter fare calibrazione colore e bilanciamento del bianco, soprattutto per ambito video. Sono felice di aver acquistato questo, molto più economico della versione Passport.

Svolge egregiamente la sua funzione. Basta farlo tenere in mano alla persona intervistata o posizionarlo da qualche parte all'inizio dell'inquadratura e siete a posto. Fondamentale soprattutto quando si gira in LOG.

Bisogna precisare che il software che arriva con il cartoncino non permette una calibrazione, automatica, a seconda del programma che usata per editare (Lightroom, DaVinci, Premiere ecc) vi dovete fare la calibrazione a mano, osservando le tinte nei quadratini. Ci sono migliaia di video tutorial su YouTube che spiegano come farlo, in tutte le lingue e per qualsiasi software. Si impara facilmente.

La qualità è ottima, più che un cartoncino è proprio un pannello di plastica rigida, che arriva con una pratica busta - custodia. ATTENZIONE A NON TOCCARLO CON LE DITA, tenetelo dai bordi. Non appena si toccano le tinte gli olii della pelle lasciano delle piccole impronte che, viste controluce, possono influenzare la calibrazione colore.
