Pre-Order RefBall 12.6cm HDRI VFX Ball Chrome Grey Ball Kit

Key Features

• Dual-Sphere VFX Reference: Contains one highly polished mirror chrome sphere and one 18% neutral grey sphere to capture lighting environment maps and shadow density simultaneously.
• Optically Precise 18% Grey: The grey sphere has been long-term field tested to deliver professional-grade, metered 18% reflectance, ensuring accurate color balancing and diffuse shading evaluation.
• Specular Chrome Fineness: The stainless steel sphere undergoes more than 20 specialized multi-layer polishing stages to guarantee a perfect mirror reflection free of visible seams.
• Universal Thread Integration: Outfitted with standard 1/4" or 3/8" UNC threads, allowing hassle-free mounting to tripods, camera plates, or custom rigging hardware.
• Carbon Fiber Handles: Packed with lightweight, high-rigidity 30cm carbon fiber extension rods to keep handles out of frame while maintaining maximum stability.
• Integrated Color Checker Chart: Includes a miniature color grid chart to quickly establish post-production white balance and sensor illumination matrices on set.
• Rugged Protection: Shipped in a premium, foam-lined protective hard shell case (similar to Peli Storm templates) alongside soft polar fleece pouches to prevent scuffing the delicate sphere finishes.

The RefBall 12.6cm HDRI VFX Ball Kit is an industry-standard visual effects acquisition tool manufactured specifically for film, television, and cinematic post-production workflows. Positioned as a mid-sized reference set, the 12.6cm format strikes the optimal balance between high-resolution data collection and extreme portable on-set mobility. It gives compositors, lighting technical directors, and 3D artists exact physical markers to replicate real-world light direction, color temperature, specularity, and ambient diffuse intensity when integrating CG assets into live-action plates.
