Yes, just for this reason I've choose the much more expensive target with
flat-spectrum white, gray and dark patches. It's the X-Rite Digital
ColorChecker SG. There is a quite small number of patches in the target and
I've got a good results with ArgyllCMS Matrix+Gamma profiles. But I didn't find
an alternative for the X-Rite target yet.
