Title: IT8 Target Suppliers Post by: CHoffman on March 21, 2025, 04:19:51 PM Nobody seems to know the status of Wolf Faust, one of the IT8 target suppliers. He had the best prices, and the site is still up, but response has been zero. Last anybody heard from him was mid-2024. That leaves us with few choices, but I recently found- https://www.greywhitebalancecolourcard.co.uk/it8.html and ordered a new target. We'll see how it does, but I have high hopes! It will also be interesting to see how my 20-year-old original compares, as I think it's faded a bit.

So, I got a target from the UK company. There are a variety of data files for it, but I get a floating-point error from Prism that I've never seen before. They give a lot less data than the Wolf Faust targets. Here's a short clip from the top of what seems to be the best file. The formatting is messed up in my cut/paste but the columns are all there. Any chance I'll be able to use this?
