SMPTE Products at IBC2013:
SMPTE CamBook 3
SMPTEs CamBook 3 is a precision tool designed to help users optimize image quality with ease and speed. With this convenient tool, engineers can align and set up cameras to REC 709, compare/match camera makes and models, and test lenses for colorimetry and resolution. In production, the CamBook 3 helps users select the best camera for the job and serves as a useful reference both on set and in post for color correction of images. The SMPTE-branded book is essentially three charts bound into one product. It features a number of popular DSC test elements, including the CamAlign colorbar/grayscale with SpectroGray patented spectrophotometrically neutral grayscale, a 12-chip colorbar with four standard skin tones, resolution trumpets, and both 16:9 and 4:3 framing lines. Additional DSC test elements include three matte reference chips 18 percent gray, DSC Warm, and 90 percent CamWhite as well as a DSC BackFocus Pattern, all of which were previously unavailable in any CamBook.
SMPTE OneShot Pocket Chart
Offered in a SMPTE-branded protective case, the DSC Labs OneShot pocket chart provides all of the color and luminance information necessary to match and reproduce color in dailies footage. When the chart is captured on camera, it serves as a reference that allows colors to be adjusted quickly and accurately to match the look predetermined by the director of photography. Printed with a matte surface that reduces glare, the OneShot chart can be incorporated into a shot with minimal reconfiguration of cameras and lighting. As a result, this pocket tool gives users a fast means of maintaining the right look and feel for motion images, even in high pressure, time-sensitive shooting environments. As the name suggests, the overall size of 6.25 inches by 3.75 inches can actually fit in your pocket. A lanyard is also included for convenience.
Resources:
Throughout IBC2013, SMPTE staff will be available on the stand to discuss current trends and answer questions about SMPTE and resources including the latest SMPTE Standards Quarterly Report, released following the June meeting of the SMPTE Standards Committee in San Jose, Calif. The Standards Report summarizes the current progress of SMPTE committees working to create, approve, revise, and remove standards for the industry. Copies of the September 2013 SMPTE Motion Imaging Journals Progress Report issue, the Societys key publication, will be available on the stand. The issue will focus on trends and developments in the motion imaging industry. Journal content from 1916 to present may be accessed from the new SMPTE digital library. Available at library.smpte.org, the SMPTE digital library provides one-stop access to SMPTE resources, informing professionals about the latest technology and industry research as they happen.
