DISCLAIMER:

• Spears & Munsil UHD HDR Benchmark does not include blue filters from the SDR era for the simple fact that blue filters don't work on HDR displays. Utilize the blue-filter/blue-only mode that is offered on some displays, or use the accurate reference materials to verify color
• All documentation is available online only and may vary by display. Visit the S&M website periodically to check for updated user guides.
• While there are many patterns that are usable by consumers, this disc also includes many more professional patterns that require instrumentation. Please ensure that this is what you want prior to ordering. 
• While opened discs are not returnable, defective or damaged discs can be exchanged.
