Uncompromising Color Accuracy for Professionals
In professional video and imaging, color accuracy isn't just a preference—it's a requirement. Every decision, from on-set monitoring to final color grading, depends on a reliable, consistent reference. When your reputation is on the line, you need a tool that delivers uncompromising precision. Introducing the Colorimetry Research CR-100, a professional-grade colorimeter engineered for the most demanding color-critical applications. Designed from the ground up to provide best-in-class performance, the CR-100 combines a rugged build with state-of-the-art measurement technology, making it the definitive choice for calibrators, post-production houses, and broadcast engineers.
The CR-100 is built to withstand the rigors of professional use. Its housing is precision-machined from durable aluminum and steel, protecting the sensitive internal components while remaining remarkably compact and lightweight at just 340 grams. This solid-state design ensures long-term stability and reliability, whether you're working in a high-end color suite or on location.
At the heart of the CR-100 are its high-quality tristimulus filters. Unlike mass-market devices, each CR-100 undergoes an exhaustive quality control process where every filter is measured with a double monochromator to guarantee it meets strict performance benchmarks. This ensures a closer match to the CIE 1931 standard observer functions, resulting in superior accuracy. To achieve exceptional performance across a diverse range of displays, the CR-100 utilizes the advanced Four-Color Matrix Method. This NIST-developed technique significantly enhances the precision of tristimulus measurements on all modern display technologies, including LCD and OLED. When ordered through Flanders Scientific, your CR-100 comes pre-loaded with custom matrix profiles for all current FSI monitors, providing out-of-the-box accuracy.
The CR-100 is fully integrated with industry-leading calibration software, including LightIllusion's LightSpace CMS and SpectraCal's CalMAN. This seamless compatibility allows for automated, full 3D LUT-based calibration, empowering you to achieve perfect color fidelity with unparalleled efficiency. Invest in the Colorimetry Research CR-100 and take complete control of your color workflow.

If the bundle discount (or gift value) exceeds the value of the returned item, the difference must be paid to be able to return the item.
Return autorization
If you would like to return any item(s), please contact us by either emailing info@dittools.eu or calling (+372) 5556 0057. We will share with you a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) code and ask that you clearly mark this code outside of your shipping box as you ship your item(s) back for a refund.
You will be liable for the shipping and any applicable customs/duty fees returning the item(s).
Incorrect items
If the return is made due to a faulty product, or an incorrectly shipped product, or if you are returning the item(s) due to a defect, or functionality issue, or because it is not the item you have ordered, we will gladly email or mail a return shipping label covering all shipping related expenses. In order to determine whether the return is initiated due to a technical problem, we may ask for you to provide visual support like images or a video on the item(s).
Shipping
Returned merchandise must be in its original packaging, and placed in a decent shipping box, e.g. the same box that we shipped the items to you in. Please make sure to clearly mark the RMA code you have received from us outside on the box.
Do not forget to cover or peel off any existing shipping labels on the box.
DIT Supplies OÜ cannot be held accountable for return shipments that have not reached us or returns made without RMA codes. We strongly advise that if you are returning the item(s) with a carrier of your choice that you use a traceable shipping method.

Customs, duties & taxes
There are no customs duties or taxes on orders shipping within the EU. Orders shipped outside of the EU may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees collected by the destination country. The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to such import taxes, customs duties and fees, which are collected once a shipment reaches the recipient's country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be paid for by the recipient; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; and when customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. We advise that you contact your local customs office for more information.
