Expensive but it’s the best color checker
Not much to say.. it’s a great product. If used on a regular basis you’ll want to replace it every year or two to ensure you have the most accurate colors and no faded squares.Do not touch the squares with your bare fingers, the oil can damage it.

Easy to use and accurate
This one is a replacement for the one I'd been using for several years. They do fade with time and should be replaced every two or three years. The manufacturer says annually but I can't see any difference after one year. They work great and are easy to use, just read and follow the directions.

Should have bought a long time ago
I had held off buying this thinking I could just use the camera profiles in Lightroom. But those profiles are terrible. So I got this and made profiles using both the X-Rite software and Adobe Profile Editor. They were also not very good. Then, after reading about it in a forum, I bought Lumariver Profile Designer for $30. I load the photos of the passport into Lumariver and I'm able to tweak the profile to my liking, and when I say to my liking, I mean to produce the most accurate colors. I have made profiles already for all kinds of lighting scenarios, and they are ready to go when I edit in Lightroom. Also, the white balance patches are accurate and the case closes up tight to protect the patches from the light. Fits in your pocket.

Very handy for shooting in the field
A Color Checker has been my standby for decades. It’s very useful for ensuring accurate color in your photography. It was always great in the studio when its traditional large size was not a problem and often a benefit.This pocket size version is a lot easier to carry and use when shooting in the field. As a bonus, larger white and middle gray panels are available if you need to fill the camera’s field of view. White is more often used in video.

Just what I needed for photographing an artist's watercolors
When I got the job of shooting an artist's watercolors for him, he emphasized that I needed to get the colors right. That's when I turned to this. It is very accurate and basically easy to use. The best endorsement is that he said the photos were "spot on." I had a bit of a problem in that I use Bridge and Camera Raw for front-end editing and it is a bit clunky to get a .dng file to use for creating the profile. Once I learned the steps, it is now a comfortable routine. I think Lightroom is smoother.

As expected, accurate
Review of Calibrite ColorChecker Passport Photo 2.Color check cards are important for photography work. This device is well made. Packaging is good.Only thing I would suggest is adding a 1/8in thread in the hinge to screw it onto something for mounting.

Package Desription
You have to download the software. It was a problem for a Mac because you need to use the unarchiver to open the zip file. It does not come with a dmg file. The company has sold it to Calibrate. I tried to contact them and they were unresponsive. I know the product is good but the communication and software problem for the mac were poor.
