DBA Stouffer Graphic Arts |
Following the concept of the RZ9 Stouffer has designed
the WBZ9 White Balance Zone System Chart to help achieve
the proper white balance for any lighting situation.
Side one represents Zones I, V, and IX in three large
steps of reflected density. Use this side to set the
custom white balance of a digital camera. There is also
a 9 step Zone System gray scale at the edge of the chart
to help visualize zones I through IX. As an added bonus
there is a full sized (18% gray) matt, gray card on the
opposite side.

On location
or in the studio a photographer can photograph the White
Balance Zone System Chart, filling the frame with the
three zones, and metering for Zone V. This helpful chart
offers a well balanced exposure of highlight, mid-tone,
and shadow to use as a reference point for custom white
balancing. |

A
photographer can also capture the WBZ9 at the beginning
of a shoot or as often as needed for different lighting
conditions during the shoot. The WBZ9 can then be used
as a curve to adjust each image from any series of
photographs with the same lighting characteristics.
