GeorgeBevan 42 Report post Posted November 16, 2016 Does anyone have suggestions for alternatives to the AIC PhD Targets available through Robin Myers Imaging? I just emailed this week to inquire about purchasing another set and they said that it was uncertain whether they would put them into production. In the past I've also used MacBeth charts, as well as the X-Rite Passport. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cdschroer 167 Report post Posted November 17, 2016 We use the X-Rite passports and the small color charts (which are no longer made) We also use the Color Card SG (larger, more colors, more expensive) for projects where the color is really important, like our recent project with the Diego Rivera Mural at City College in San Francisco. We can use that for profiling, or for checking our results using the free Delt.ae website. X-rite produces the old Gretag-Macbeth charts (included int he Passport and as a separate large chart) - they bought the rights to them. Carla Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taylor 44 Report post Posted November 22, 2016 Sorry to hear if the AIC PhD targets won't be made available. They have a nice layout, different sizes, and useful features. I've thought about buying a couple different sizes for imaging paintings and other subjects if I had the budget, but maybe I missed the opportunity. You might also want to look at the Artist Paint Target (APT) developed by Roy Berns' team at Rochester Institute of Technology: http://www.rit-mcsl.org/Mellon/PDFs/Artist_Paint_Target_TR_2014.pdf They're relatively small, similar to the discontinued X-Rite mini color checker. You might contact Dr. Roy Berns to find out how to order one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeorgeBevan 42 Report post Posted December 14, 2016 I just heard back from Robin Myers that they are going to develop a new target that is less expensive to manufacture in the new year. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
