    Calibration Targets

    One good source of moderately-priced quality IT-8 targets is the German target producer Wolf Faust. He offers targets designed for flatbed scanners, digital cameras and 35mm slide scanners. The slide targets are available on a variety of slide film emulsions to better match the characteristics of the actual slides you are scanning.
