> **[Calibration Target | Neat Video](https://www.neatvideo.com/support/how-to-use/calibration-target)** Use this on your next job, its very good, I just printed in out on matte paper in High quality and bring it on every shoot. Not many people know this I think , or maybe you guys do then … nevermind 😃 Bonus points: you can also put it on a card in 3D and render it then build a profile for your renderer to denoise renders … it can work pretty well sometimes. (deending on how the noise is distributed in the image… denoising cg is another topic all in its own) ---

Interesting that it doesn’t have pure RBG colors. I would have thought that it would work better if it could look at the noise pattern in the individual channels but I guess not. I also wonder if you would get the same result by shooting a color chip chart out of focus. ---

good question, I was thinking they want something with even noise in all channels but then it would just be grey - honestly no idea! This chart is specifically for neat ao not sure a mcbeth would do you any good also the payches are rather small. before i found out about this I used a greycard slightly defocused.
