Renditions of Three Popular Colour Targets

These Lab renditions of Macbeth ColorChecker, ColorChecker DC, and ColorChecker SG (attached archive contains three 16-bit Lab TIFF files of the targets; if you need them larger please upsize in Photoshop using "Nearest Neighbor" method in Image -> Image Size) can serve as a visual reference as well as for adjustments "by numbers" during raw conversion and post-processing.

Please note that ColorChecker SG contains a structure very similar in appearance to 24-patch regular ColorChecker; but the values of patches are in fact different.

Were these produced from spectral data, from measured or published LAB values, or from RGB data in a known colorspace and whitepoint? What is the illuminant used?

These were produced from spectral data.

Okay, good. That will produce the best results. What illuminant was used - D65? D50?

It was D50, 3 of CC24 averaged (last batch), 2 SG and 2 DC. Device used was Gretag Spectrolino.

Thanks once again!

thanks for these files

i am using an e1io(uv)and have a delta E of about 3 to the GM spectrolino data
