Reading BW test targets with an X-Rite i1iO

Reading BW test targets with an X-Rite i1iO

2016-08-15 by yg_1@...

I've recently had an old eye one iO upgraded to an i1iO and took the chance to change the 51 step wedge in my B&W test image to a format that the iO could read (21 or 51 step)


If anyone is curious I've written up some details about using it and putting the results through QTR's icc profile generation.

Of course, the iO is a bit of overkill for such a task (it costs more than the Canon PRO-2000 I've been testing for my review), but it does allow for things like multi reading averaging.


That and it's still an impressive looking bit of kit :-)
