CameraTrax 24ColorCard-3x5 (OneSnapColor) with 12% White Balance Card and User Guidebook

I have been photographing paintings to do prints from and was looking for a way to not only get more accurate colors but make it faster to do so. I really had reservations about paying this much for "a piece of printed paper" I mean yeah it has a magnetic closure but still. So I got it anyway profiled the camera and shoot it in the frame of all my pics. I use it for black grey and white on my curves adjustment and apply the color profile in RAW. I have fallen in love now that I no longer have to fiddle with color adjustments for 30min per image anymore. Just a quick crop and clean up any small areas and good to go. - Customer Reviews

Product Description CameraTrax 24ColorCard-3x5 (OneSnapColor) with 12% White Balance Card and User Guidebook The New CameraTrax OneSnapColor FlipCard design, with invisible magnetic latch, is a snap to open, close and use. The outside is laminated to protect the precision 24Color and 12% Grey cards inside. At 3.25 x 4.75 inches, the OneSnapColor card easily slips into a shirt pocket or camera bag and at just 2 ounces, you can take it everywhere. The FlipCard design gives quick access to both Grey and Color cards at the same time. IT'S EASY to improve the color of your photos in 3 simple steps: 1) white-balance your camera using the Grey side, 2) photograph the Color side and then photograph your subject and 3) use the auto-adjust features of your photo software in your computer. INSTRUCTIONS are included, in a 32-page full-color guide book, for Picasa (Free from Google), Photoshop Lightroom, Photoshop Elements and Photoshop CS4. The User's Guide also includes discussion of color balance theory and an additional section for advanced users. ADVANCED USERS: The colors are measured after the color printing cures and the RGB measured data is then printed directly on the card for every color-patch for more precision. Advanced users can follow the more in-depth procedures in the User's Guide (not provided with the 2x3 card product). The 24ColorCard is also compatible with Photoshop ACR and Adobe DNG Profile Editor for creating DNG profiles. NOTE: Like all quality photographic color references, these precision colors are NOT plastic-laminated (which would damage color accuracy) so do not let the colors get wet. The User's Guide is an integral part of the product so is not available as a free download. CameraTrax 24ColorCards are designed and manufactured in the US. Other card sizes include: -2x3 (2x3-in)
