 Multi-tasking charts.  Say goodbye to your old chip charts and begin using high-performance FB Series CamAligns.  Aligning cameras before you shoot can minimize time in post.  Also, shoot your FB chart as an on-scene reference, to speed up color correction and the matching of footage. 
 

 Easy to use.  Instructions and on-chart checklist ensures users enjoy the full benefit of DSC's FB charts.  Chart output is easily interpreted on familiar waveform and vectorscope displays, both in camera set-up and post.
 

 FB model for every budget and application.  Your choice of - Professional, Standard and College.  These compact double-sided charts save time and storage space, and are economically priced for those on a budget.
 

 Essential tools for HD.  Broadcast camera factory presets are often not enough to ensure optimal image reproduction!  Use FrontBox charts to match your camera's set-up with your project's distribution mechanism.
 

 Improve the contrast range of your images.  The dynamic range of today's cameras and reproduction systems is over 10 times greater than that of a typical greyscale chart (50:1).  Wide dynamic range grayscales on CamAlign and FB charts generate consistent signals more representative of those found in real-life.
 

 Make shadows neutral, every time.  Reproduce grays faithfully through the entire tonal range, using "color-true" grayscales.  Made with unique technology (patented), DSC's grayscale steps are spectrophotometrically neutral.  
 

 Match and "paint" cameras with new 709 colors.  DSC uses the latest ITU-R BT.709/SMPTE 274M reference primaries in all its test products.  Professional model charts include a table of aim values and instructions.  Adjust color controls to international standards, or develop your own unique, repeatable "look".
