The YE0165 is designed for evaluation the halftone reproduction of 16:9 electronic cameras. Two 11-graduated counter current gray scales are arranged on a gray background (D ≈ 0.56), the gray scale corresponds to the ITU recommendation BT.709.

The output signal of an optimally gamma-corrected camera according to BT.709 generates two counter current, linear step signals.

The contrast range of the gray scale is 40 : 1.

The values of the 11-graduated gray scale are as follows:

Step Density Remission in % Video signal for BT.709 in % Video signal for gamma 0.45 in %
1 0.05 89 100 100
2 0.13 74 91 92
3 0.22 60 82 84
4 0.32 48 73 75
5 0.43 37 64 67
6 0.56 28 55 59
7 0.70 20 46 51
8 0.88 13 37 43
9 1.08 8 28 35
10 1.34 5 19 26
11 1.64* 2 11 19

*The production process for reflective charts allow a maximum printed density of 1.64. The target value for the darkest step is 1.70. Therefore the distance of the last step differ slightly.

Two black fields and a white field are located between the gray scales. The density of the black fields in the middle is D > 3 (remission < 0.1 %), the white field between has a density of 0.05 (remission 89.9%).
Recommended usage:

Adjust the aperture until the lightest patch reaches 100% video signal at the waveform monitor. With an optimally corrected camera according to ITU recommendation BT.709 the darkest patch will reach 10% signal level.

When using this chart with a gamma correction of 0.45 the video signal level for each step will change as listed in the table above.

FAQs About  Grayscale Charts

D/8°and 45°/0°are two kinds of illumination geometry with different optical geometry design. D/8°illumination geometry is more widely used for the color comparison and measurement of high-gloss materials; 45°/0°illumination geometry is mainly used in printing and packaging industries. 

Ambient light may affect the test results and must therefore be kept to a low level for accurate haze meter results. 


Measuring zinc coating thickness is most commonly using magnetic induction. The gauge measures how far the magnetic probes are to the metal base under the zinc. This is the most reliable way to measure the thickness and the preservation of the galvanization.

A Spectrophotometer color measuring device objectively determines the color of a surface. It is used wherever accurate color matching, reproducibility or deviation control is needed – for example in quality assurance, product development or incoming goods inspection.

Spectrophotometer color measuring devices primarily perform three key tasks:

Capture color information: They detect light reflected, transmitted, or emitted by a sample using optical sensors.
Quantify color data: They convert the captured optical signals into standardized numerical values, such as RGB, CMYK, or CIELAB coordinates.
Compare color consistency: They compare the measured color data of a sample against a target or standard to assess color accuracy and uniformity.


Every 2,000 - 3,000 hours or manufacturer recommendation to maintain consistent light and color quality.
