The human visual system compensates for changes in color balance. One problem all colorists experience is color constancy (the effect that your eyes adapt to make make white look white despite the white balance). You can even enter custom primaries and whitepoints. CIE plot shows your color gamut and the primary boundaries of multiple colorspaces. Some projects deliver P3 ranges in rec2020 gamut for instance. Modern workflows sometimes target multiple color gamuts or smaller gamuts within a universal file. For HDR, surface area overlays are included so you can spot the percentage of raster that falls within a nit range - necessary because of the autogain control on modern TVs. The Luma Histogram gives you a quick idea of the distribution of luma levels within your signal, so that you can quickly identify overexposed signals. With the histogram, you can see where colors are concentrated within a scene - are all the reds really dark, with greens that are very bright? Is there a nice even range of saturation, or is everything concentrated in a big lump? Luma Histogram Sometimes it can be hard to see what they're talking about. You've probably heard people go on and on about the contrast of a scene. Being more of a technical scope, this scope is very useful for spotting banding, quantitization, and clipping signals in SDI and other YCbCr sources. YCbCr Parade lets you see how each component of your YCbCr video is represented. This lets you quickly identify gamut excursions and other color conversion issues. Channel PlotĬhannel Plot lets you plot two components of your signal against each other, like red vs. Use the RGB Parade in conjunction with the Waveform scope to track down overexposed parts of your shot, and then tweak them just the right amount. The RGB Parade lets you see how each channel of your video is represented in red, green, and blue. By using the HML Balance scope, it's finally possible to easily spot a color cast in a highlight or a shadow. Invented by Divergent Media, ScopeBox's home before it became a Hedge app, the HML Balance scope segments your signal into high, mid, and low exposure vectorscopes. Bonus feature: ensure perfect white and black balance, and set up calibration of your video equipment. Vectorscopes show you exactly how saturated your colors are, for the brightest colors possible without exceeding broadcast limits. We all want bright vibrant colors, but unfortunately there can be too much of a good thing. ScopeBox is an exact replica of a real waveform. It also makes setting up green screen shots a breeze. Using a waveform allows you to be confident you're getting the most contrast and definition from the shot. Video levels are the key to a well exposed shot. These layouts can be saved and recalled later.

Each of these can be arranged, resized and customized for your needs. ScopeBox recreates every major video quality assurance tool, in software. As many camera vendors supply LUTs for doing log-to-linear conversion, you get a good grasp on how your footage will look in real life. ScopeBox allows you to quickly apply a LUT, so you can get a sense of how your color corrected footage will look in 709 or 2020. It makes matching problem areas in your scopes back to image features dead simple. ScopeBox's unique Feature Insights allow you to highlight the pixels in your image based on a specific luminance, chrominance, or channel range.
SCOPEBOX REVIEW MOVIE
In addition, you can overlay any QuickTime movie or image - great for framing greenscreen shots or shooting around lower thirds. Center marks, rule of thirds, letterbox masks, title safe and graphics safe are all available. To help you frame your shot, ScopeBox includes a number of overlay features.

Add framing guides and overlays to make sure that your shot works exactly the way you expect. Complete with false color and feature insights, you get the most powerful toolset available for quantitative viewing.

All the features you'd expect to find on a high-end field monitor.
