The opposite is true. Target prices are low because there are major customers ordering large volumes. Only because of those large orders I can afford the development/production devices necessary to produce high quality targets. Also you do buy from the manufacturer and pay cash in order to keep shipping/handling fees low. There are no distributor and dealer fees involved, yet I hope there will be more dealers selling my targets for those who want the normal mail order service for a "normal" price. Only small target charges are produced making sure the important reproduction fault of the targets is very low (see the reference files below for statistical data and error details on an actual production). Major efforts were spend making sure the film targets produced do have a very large color gamut. Important calibration patches like neutral dmin/dmax (A16/L16) and dmin/dmax (GS0/GS 23) are reaching the limits of normal E6 film processing. This makes sure no highlight/shadow details are lost with scanner profiling software. The 35mm type 3 targets have a similar large gamut as the large 4x5" type 1 targets. While the IT 8.7/1 or ISO 12641 standard does not define error tolerance limits for the 35mm type 3 targets, the targets are well within the error limits specified for type 1 or 2 targets. Download the latest reference files below for the latest info on reproduction fault, deviation from the color values defined by the IT 8 standard. For nearly all targets there are some sort of "extras" available: reference files for white backing, spectral data in various formats (CxF, CGATS, Excel, EPS), data for different illuminants or observers and more. Compare the values with other target manufacturers and you will quickly see there is no other manufacturer getting close to the quality of coloraid.de targets."
