PHOTOKINA ’08 WORLD-OF-IMAGING Trade Show – X-Rite, Incorporated, the world leader in color management and measurement technologies (www.xrite.com), launches a global contest for its standards-setting ColorChecker product at photokina, September 23–28, 2008 in Cologne, Germany.
Photokina provides a perfect platform to launch a global contest that encourages photographers to showcase the creativity with which they check the color balance in their photographic workflow using the ColorChecker.
Where In The World Can You Win? Hall 4.1 Stand D050
The X-Rite ColorChecker (www.xrite.com/product_overview.aspx?ID=820) is a checkerboard array of 24 scientifically prepared colored squares that match the colors of natural objects under any illumination and with any color reproduction process.
Graphic artists, imagers, cinematographers and digital photographers have long relied on ColorChecker to verify the true color balance of monitors, film, prints, scanners, or virtually any device in the creative workflow.
At Photokina this year, X-Rite launches “Where in the World is your ColorChecker?” which recognizes the best or most original photos using ColorChecker. The contest runs through December 10, 2008, when a panel of industry experts–including some of X-Rite’s top Coloratti– will judge all submissions, selecting 10 top photos to award and post online.

The company will give away 100 Mini ColorCheckers daily and chances to win either an X-Rite i1Display 2 or a X-Rite ColorMunki Photo. To win, register at the X-Rite Stand D050 in Hall 4.1.
