An important step to improve your photos

An additional skin tone correction should be retrofitted for portrait shots. Other styles of photography can go without the 24 color version, which is cheaper and can work reasonably well.

Pros
  • Extensive skin tone samples for portrait and fashion photography
Cons
  • Suitable

Sturdy and thick, but oversized.

I had to shine a flashlight on the angel and study the spots on pink (A6) and black (B6) with my smartphone. card defective? Pros: 1. The case is not of poor quality. It is strong enough so you don't have to worry about it breaking.2. The cards themselves are thick.3. The retractable screw is metal, not plastic. Cons: 1. The retail box I received has a factory seal on the top box but not on the box where it can be easily opened. The size is a little big.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Out of fashion

I have been a photographer for 9 years and have gray cards, datacolor passport, exhibition discs etc found that using my eye was the best way to get the most consistent skin tones.

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Works great! and significantly reduces post-processing time. When using different cameras, slight to significant color differences can occur, even with the same camera bodies. By creating color-corrected presets for each one, your photos will look very similar to each other. I recommend watching a video on how to use the product for the first time (it's easier). This is the first step in color correcting your photos. The second is to edit them on a color calibrated monitor (a high quality…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
