The SFRplus test chart can be used with the SFRplus module in Imatest 3.2 or later to measure MTF, lateral chromatic aberration, distortion, tonal response, and color accuracy. The SFRplus module features fully automated region-of-interest detection. The SFRplus chart offers significant advantages over commonly used charts such as the ISO 12233 chart, including 1) much less wasted area, 2) the ability to produce a map of sharpness over the sensor surface, 3) better measurement accuracy due to the lower contrast, and 4) full support for automated testing.

This chart is recommended for most standard testing setups and devices. Choose a size based on your sensor and setup limitations.


Options include:

  • Grid: 5x9 grids are recommended for for typical DSLR formats with aspect ratios of 3:2
  • Paper Size and Active Area Options

    This chart is available in three sizes. It is recommended that the medium sized charts be used to test imaging systems with sensors up to 12 MP, the large charts be used for testing of sensors up to approximately 24 MP, and the extra-large charts be used for sensor sizes above 24 MP.

    Active Area

    The active area of the chart includes white space above and below the top and bottom distortion bars. It is slightly larger than the printed area, which is bounded by the distortion bars on top and bottom. White space is included in active area because test images of the chart must include this white space in order to enable automated processing in SFRplus software.

  • Paper/ink type: Matte paper/ink can be used to reduce reflected light and allow for easier lighting setups
  • Contrast levels: 4:1 contrast ratio for new ISO standard compliance
  • Color chart: a 20 patch color chart.

FAQs About  SFRPlus Test Charts

Because color perception depends on the following factors: 

Light source - For example, incandescent lamps emit orange light, while fluorescent lamps emit cool white light. Therefore, placing an object near different light sources will result in different perceived colors. 

Observed object - Different types of objects affect color perception differently. Examples include opaque objects, translucent objects, and transparent objects. 

Observer's position - Each observer will describe colors differently based on the position of their eyes. 

Different backgrounds - An object's color will appear duller against a light-colored background than against a dark-colored background. Different directions of light reflection from the object - Light reflected from different directions creates different color perceptions. This is particularly noticeable with metallic objects.

Different directions of light reflection from the object - Light reflected from different directions creates different color perceptions. This is particularly noticeable with metallic objects.

There are many factors that can influence accuracy such as surface roughness, temperature, substrate material, and calibration settings. For ferrous metals, external magnetic fields can also distort measurements. Proper calibration and preparation will help reduce the impact of these factors.


a. Connect colorimeter to the PC with USB cable.

b. Turn on the colorimeter to enter main menu. Select "Comm" and press "Enter" key to start communication.

c. Right click on "My Computer" on the desktop. Click "Manage" -> "Device Manager" -> "Ports", you can see similar display as "SCI USB2Serial (COM6)".

d. Click "Settings->Communication Parameters" in CQCS3 software interface. Select the corresponding port in "Serial Port".

Haze measurement can be distorted by scratches on the surface, dust, temperature, and light. 

The color may be quantified in L*a*b* (CIELAB units), RGB values, CMYK (printing), and ΔE (color difference). Colorimetric assessment measures also apply spectral reflectance and absorbance (A), particularly in liquids and solutions.

Measurement Accuracy (dE/ΔE): The smaller the value, the higher the match between the color measured by the colorimeter instrument and human visual perception. Generally, dE < 1.0 is regarded as the industrial passing line, while dE < 0.5 falls into the high-precision level. 

Measurement Structure: D/8 (integrating sphere structure) is the universal standard, which includes two modes: SCI (Specular Component Included, with specular reflection light) and SCE (Specular Component Excluded, excluding specular reflection light). 45/0 (ring illumination) simulates the human eye's viewing angle and is more suitable for judging reflective materials. 

Repeatability: It refers to the difference in color results when measuring the same point multiple times. The equipment can achieve ΔE < 0.08, ensuring highly reliable measurement results. 

Illumination Source and Viewing Angle: It is recommended to choose the combination of CIE standard light source D65 (simulating daylight) and a 10° viewing angle. 

Application Scenario Requirements: It is necessary to clarify the purchase purpose (quality inspection? R&D? material evaluation?) and the usage environment (laboratory, workshop or field work?).
