ISO 12233:2014 E-SFR charts are implementations of the Low Contrast Edge SFR (E-SFR) test chart illustrated in Section 6.1 and Annex C of the ISO Standard Document. We offer the Enhanced version of this chart in high resolution photographic prints, suitable for high resolution sensors up to 54MP at the 4x size.

All Imatest ISO 12233:2014 E-SFR charts are fully compliant with the ISO standard. The Imatest eSFR ISO module provides highly automated support for the new charts.
 

Chart Sizes Enhanced Megapixel Suitability *
1x 200 mm × 305 mm
7.875" × 12"		 3.4 MP
2x 400 mm × 610 mm
15.75" × 24"		 13 MP
4x 800 mm × 1220 mm
31.5" × 48"		 54 MP

ENHANCED VERSION

 ISO 12233:2014 E-SFR chart has all the features of the Standard chart, keeping the 3:2 aspect ratio, with the addition of six added slanted squares for measuring performance near the image boundaries and hyperbolic wedges for visual analysis or analysis with the Imatest Wedge module. 

The differences between the Imatest charts and the chart illustrated in the standard are listed below. Even with these differences the Imatest chart is in full compliance with the standard.

  • A 20 patch OECF grayscale pattern* is used as opposed to the 16 patch version.
  • The Focus Patterns in the centers of the squares are rectangular (to increase the MTF measurement area) and are designed to reduce interference with automatic edge detection.
  • There are four registration marks instead of three to facilitate automated region detection. (Four features are required for a projective transform.)
  • An additional mark above the lower-left registration mark is used for detecting chart orientation.
     
ENHANCED VERSION

The differences between the Enhanced and Standard Versions are as follows:

  • Six extra slanted squares are added for measuring performance near the image boundaries.
  • Several hyperbolic wedges with spatial frequencies, similar to the CIPA chart referenced in the ISO standard, for visual analysis or use with the Imatest Wedge module.
  • 16 color patches when produced with technologies that allow color (inkjet or color LVT), with colors similar to the industry-standard 24-color test chart.
     

Megapixel Quality Ratings

Megapixel suitability is based on analysis of Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) obtained from a chart image captured using a 1:1 magnification lens (Canon 65mm f/2.8 1-5x macro) and a 6.5µm pixel size sensor (Canon EOS 6D). In order to consider performance throughout the cameras range of expected sharpness, MTF90 (the spatial frequency where MTF is 90%) is weighted at 0.5, MTF70 is weighted at 0.35, and MTF50 is weighted at 0.15. Conversion to megapixels is based on the Imatest Chart Quality Index (CQI) calculation which determines sensor height suitability using the equation 2 * MTFxx (cycles per object mm) * vertical chart height (mm), where xx is 90, 70 or 50. Megapixel suitability calculations assume that (1) the lens is of high quality, (2) that the chart fills the vertical field of view (vFoV) of the camera system, and (3) that the sensor aspect ratio is 3:2. For 16:9 aspect ratio sensors (with pillarboxed framing, if applicable), multiply the megapixel suitability by 1.185. For 4:3 aspect ratio sensors (with left/right sides of chart cropped), multiply megapixel suitability by 0.889. Charts can be suitable for significantly higher megapixel counts if the minimum resolvable feature size of the lens is larger than the pixel size or the chart fills less than the full sensor vertical field of view.

FAQs About  ISO Test Charts

A haze meter is precise and accurate if the sample is clean, there is a light contamination, and the sample is condition.


At most of time, we have stock in the factory. Generally it is 1-3 working days after the payment confirmed. After shipped, we will email you the tracking number. You can check the shipping status of your order on the website. If you are in urgent need, we can consider making special arrangement for you.


Colorimeter calibration is indispensable for reliable quality control—ensuring measurement accuracy by compensating for component aging, environmental interference, and baseline drift. It standardizes data across devices/batches, maintains compliance with industry standards, and prevents costly rework from inaccurate color readings, making it critical for precision-driven industries like printing, food, plastics, textiles, paint and coatings.

The Ideal Accurate and User - Friendly Spectrophotometer for Your Needs 

This Spectrophotometer device measures the reflectivity，absorbance, transmittance, and fluorescence of light passing through samples, providing invaluable data for a wide range of applications, provide unrivaled accuracy for reliable results. 

Selecting an appropriate spectrophotometer offers significant advantages for precision color analysis and quality control. When choosing an accurate and user - friendly spectrophotometer, consider factors such as wavelength range, sensitivity, sample handling options, and available software features. By investing in the right spectrophotometer, you can streamline your analytical processes, obtain more accurate results, and enhance the overall efficiency of your laboratory or industrial operations. 

 Choosing the right model—whether portable, benchtop, or inline—aligns technology with specific industry needs, ensuring long-term reliability and optimized color management.

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?).


Testing metamerism helps to identify color matches that look the same but are different in different lighting. This helps in ensuring that materials are of the same quality in all light settings.
