measurements corresponding to ISO 13655 Measurement Condition M1 (CIE Illuminant D50).
In addition, color measurements corresponding to ISO 13655 Measurement Conditions M0 (CIE Illuminant A) and
M2 (illumination with UV-cut fi lter) can also be taken.
Industry's fi rst automatic wavelength compensation function
• Wavelength compensation is performed during
white calibration without requiring additional work.
• Until now, wavelength compensation could only be
carried out as one part of manufacturer servicing.
This task is now performed whenever white
calibration is done, helping to maintain the high
reliability of measurement values until the next
periodic servicing.
Scan measurements can be performed.

1
• Manual scan measurements can be
performed when the instrument is
connected to a PC.
• With optional software basICColor
catch all, the colorimetric values, density
values, and spectral refl ectance values
of various test charts (MediaWedge
ECI2002, IT8.7/3, etc.) can be measured
in a single operation.
Enables color measurements that correspond
more closely with visual evaluation.
When using conventional instruments to measure materials printed on substrates containing fl uorescent
whitening agents (FWA), large differences between the results of measurements and visual evaluation
may occur. With the new FD-7/FD-5, measurement results correspond more closely to visual evaluation
results, including the effects of any FWA in the paper.
Spectral output

1
Since both spectral refl ectance data (380 to 730 nm) under various light sources and spectral irradiance data
(360 to 730 nm) of environmental lighting can be measured and output to a computer, it makes the FD-7 ideal for
research and development applications.

1: Function available only on FD-7.
World's lightest

2
• The main body weighs only about 350g, and even with the
target mask attached it's only about 430g, lighter than any
previous spectrodensitometer.
• This reduces the load on the user's arm during work, improving
effi ciency when taking measurements over a long time.

Worry-free after-sales service
• Worldwide service centers provide rapid support when needed.
• A comprehensive service network is in place to ensure that your instrument is always
in top shape.
Simple operation
• Measurements of density, dot area ratio, dot
gain, color, and illumination are simple.
• Instructions in the LCD screen guide operation,
so anyone can take measurements easily.
Illumination environment light can be measured.

1
• The illuminance and color temperature in a color viewing cabinet
or the actual ambient light under which printed materials will be
evaluated can be measured.
• Colorimetric values under the measured light source (which more
closely correspond to on-site visual evaluation) can be calculated.
This ensures customers receive the colors they want and
eliminates time and labor lost resolving customer complaints.
3-in-1 lightweight, handheld spectrodensitometer that measures color, density, and illumination.
An ideal instrument for the printing and digital-imaging industries.
