Color Scopes

Also known as:Video ScopesColor Analysis Tools

Definition

Color scopes are video editing and color grading tools that provide objective, numerical representations of the color and luminance values in a video image — including waveforms, vectorscopes, histograms, and parade scopes. Color scopes allow colorists and editors to make precise, calibrated adjustments rather than relying solely on subjective visual perception, which can be affected by monitor calibration and ambient lighting.
