How it Works
Using your camera’s RAW format, take a reference shot of the color target cards in the lighting/setting of your photo shoot. Then import your reference shot into Adobe Lightroom Classic®, Adobe Camera RAW® or Hasselblad Phocus® to edit the image. From there, use your Spyder Checkr software to create an HSL preset from your edited reference shot to use for your shoot and across multiple camera systems.
Portable Size + Protective Case
Spyder Checkr Photo’s portable size and rugged, protective case make it perfect for taking it with you anywhere you go. Whether you’re on location or on-the-go, put Spyder Checkr Photo in your camera bag or pocket to have on hand for planned or impromptu photo shoots.
The Ultra Matte Difference
Streamline your workflow with precise, consistent color from your first shot. Ultra-matte target cards ensure the truest color rendition in any lighting condition, for accurate results and refined detail.
New Checkr-Matte Printing Method
Datacolor’s Checkr-Matte printing method includes the selection of premium paper that conforms to ISO 9706 standards – meeting exacting requirements for age-resistance – plus, high-quality inks that offer long-lasting color integrity. The cards’ ultra-matte finish is preferred by photographers for its low reflectivity.
Less Waste, Improved Sustainability
Spyder Checkr Photo target color cards are easy to replace if lost or damaged – a cost-effective feature so you won’t have to repurchase the entire product for just the card. Additionally, the cards are made from 78% bamboo, a renewable resource for paper.
