X-Finder

An X-Finder model is intended for green-screen shoots with X tracking marks made of pieces of tape. It looks specifically for darker X’s against a lighter background. In all cases, you should set the image preprocessor’s Rez tab to a single channel (typically green) that provides the best (lowest-noise) view of the marks. Use a different channel or the Invert checkbox for light-on-dark marks.

Tip : X marks aren’t our favorite, despite their ubiquity. Spots are better: they are more accurate and not affected much by motion blur. See our treatise on this at https://www.ssontech.com/content/bluscrn.html
