The self-illuminated Xyla 15™ (14 f-stop) and Xyla 21™ (20 f-stop) are designed to provide greater accuracy and flexibility when measuring dynamic range
Toronto, Canada –DSC Labs, an eco-friendly developer of innovative products for image quality improvement, is pleased to announce the latest addition to its current line of high dynamic range charts – the Xyla 15™ and Xyla 21™. While the Xylas are sophisticated tools that feature spectrophotometrically neutral grayscales and built-in regulated power supplies, they are remarkably intuitive and easy to use. Xylas attach to any ⅝ inch spigot light stand and provide built-in leveling. Xyla’s grayscale steps may be viewed as a full staircase, in groups or individually. This can be invaluable when comparing lens flare or other optical flares in a system.
“When testing a camera’s ability to capture minute amounts of light, in the case of Xyla 21 more
