  • Center true black with adjacent 100 IRE white chips

  • Optional "CaviBlack", a DSC exclusive!

Toni  

  • The toe and knee of grayscales have always been problematic in video and digital cinema due to the lack of information available on traditional grayscale charts - but no more

  • By expanding the grayscale where you need it Toni helps you align toe and knee circuits with unprecedented accuracy.
