Calibrite ColorChecker Video XL with bag
Color control for videos - from recording to editing
ColorChecker Video XL:
The Calibrite ColorChecker Video XL offers an extra-large format for effortless target acquisition at longer distances and wider shooting angles. It offers the same chromatic colors, skin tones and gray reference chips as the standard-sized ColorChecker Video, but is twice the size. You no longer have to move your camera closer or adjust the focal length of your lens, you can shoot in the same lighting conditions that affect your subject, and minimize color casts from ambient light. You can also increase the recording resolution for more accurate post-processing.
The Calibrite ColorChecker Video XL is designed for those longer, wider shots when the distance between your camera and the subject is too great to capture a smaller target.
Ideal for large production environments such as:
-
Wide-angle shots: landscape, cityscape, individual sets
-
Event filming: concerts, churches, sports, stage
-
Aerial filming: drones
The ColorChecker Video gives you a worry-free, color-balanced and consistently neutral result with ideal camera exposure faster than ever before - giving you more time to find your creative look. It is an indispensable color tool that you won't want to be without and that saves you valuable time throughout the entire video workflow, from recording to editing.
The ColorChecker Video XL is an extra-large, rugged and stable all-in-one video target. The target is available alone or with two forms of additional protection; your choice of a simple cover or a sturdy carrying case.

ColorChecker Video Charts make your workflow faster, more consistent and more color balanced. They enable everyone on your team - from producers to cinematographers to editors and colorists - to work with consistent color information. They save time from pre-production to production and help you achieve your creative look faster.
Achieving the right color balance and exposure for video footage can be challenging. Camera apertures don't always match perfectly. Ambient lighting conditions are constantly changing. Different cameras and lenses have different rendering, even if they're the same make and model. All of this leads to quality control challenges and increased post-production work for your colorist or editor.
This is what the ColorChecker Video XL offers:
Video Target: Speed up your color correction workflow by setting the ideal exposure and color balance, whether you're shooting with one or multiple cameras. The color table includes a range of chips for chromatic color, skin tone chips, gray chips, and lighting check chips. The design is optimized for ideal performance when used with vectorscopes and waveforms, whether directly on camera or in software.
Chromatic Colors: two rows of six chromatic color chips, both saturated and desaturated, specifically designed to align with the color axis on a vectorscope. These colors provide two levels of color information to help you achieve an ideal color balance more quickly.
Skin tones: from light to dark with subtle undertones to better and more accurately reproduce skin tones. This row of chips is positioned on the outer edge of the target for easy alignment.
Wide Grayscale: four wider gradations for consistent gray balance, including white, 40IRE gray, deep gray, and glossy black. These levels are ideal for determining the correct exposure whether you're using a waveform, zebras, or faux colors. Use these levels to match the exposure and contrast of cameras you're adjusting, and to ensure that midtones are reproduced correctly. These chips are positioned in the center of the test target to achieve maximum exposure, even when shooting wide.
Linear Grayscale: six color chips to achieve a uniform gray balance. This series is aimed at highlights and shadows.
Illumination check chips: black and white chips on two corners to better assist in determining uniform illumination across the entire target.
