Pros & Cons
Pros
Checkr comes in a compact, brushed aluminum-looking plastic case that folds in half. The case has connectors for a tripod mount and accepts either male or female connections. It also has a retractable threaded stud to keep it out of the way.
They are so handy. Works exceptionally well. Although it costs a lot, it's functionality definitely allows me to get professional quality in a short amount.
Using the grey card side, this tool has the perfect skin tones when using to set custom white balance with my nikon d850. The include gray scale eliminates the need for a separate white balance card.
The cropped photo is saved in tif if using acr. Lightroom has a setting for letting you edit the image directly in the checkr software. This creates a preset which you can then use to adjust the colors of your pictures.
Cons
Datacolor really needs to put a disclaimer on this that it is really only for photography.
