  2. Color temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_temperature

    The color temperature scale describes only the color of light emitted by a light source, which may actually be at a different (and often much lower) temperature. [1] [2] Color temperature has applications in lighting, [3] photography, [4] videography, [5] publishing, [6] manufacturing, [7] astrophysics, [8] and other fields.

  3. Correlated color temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlated_color_temperature

    Priest proposed to use "the scale of temperature as a scale for arranging the chromaticities of the several illuminants in a serial order". Over the next few years, Judd published three more significant papers: The first verified the findings of Priest, [7] Davis, [8] and Judd, [9] with a paper on sensitivity to change in color temperature. [11]

  4. Mired - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mired

    In photography, mireds are used to indicate the color temperature shift provided by a filter or gel for a given film and light source. For instance, to use daylight film (5700 K) to take a photograph under a tungsten light source (3200 K) without introducing a color cast , one would need a corrective filter or gel providing a mired shift

  5. Color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color

    Color reproduction is the science of creating colors for the human eye that faithfully represent the desired color. It focuses on how to construct a spectrum of wavelengths that will best evoke a certain color in an observer. Most colors are not spectral colors, meaning they are mixtures of

  6. Color correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_correction

    Color correction is a process used in stage lighting, photography, television, cinematography, and other disciplines, which uses color gels, or filters, to alter the overall color of the light. Typically the light color is measured on a scale known as color temperature , as well as along a green – magenta axis orthogonal to the color ...

  7. Chromaticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromaticity

    The CIE 1931 xy chromaticity space, also showing the chromaticities of black-body light sources of various temperatures, and lines of constant correlated color temperature 3D chromaticity diagram of the WideGamutRGB color space. Chromaticity is an objective specification of the quality of a color regardless of its luminance.

  8. Flash (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_(photography)

    Color temperature can change as a result of varying the capacitor charge, making color correction necessary. Constant-color-temperature flash can be achieved by using appropriate circuitry. [18] Flash intensity is typically measured in stops or in fractions (1, 1 ⁄ 2, 1 ⁄ 4, 1 ⁄ 8 etc.). Some monolights display an "EV Number", so that a ...

  9. Planckian locus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planckian_locus

    Planckian locus in the CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram. In physics and color science, the Planckian locus or black body locus is the path or locus that the color of an incandescent black body would take in a particular chromaticity space as the blackbody temperature changes.
