The CIE positions D65 as the standard daylight illuminant: [D65] is intended to represent average daylight and has a correlated colour temperature of approximately 6500 K. CIE standard illuminant D65 should be used in all colorimetric calculations requiring representative daylight, unless there are specific reasons for using a different illuminant.
An illuminant is characterized by its relative spectral power distribution (SPD). The white point of an illuminant is the chromaticity of a white object under the illuminant, and can be specified by chromaticity coordinates, such as the x, y coordinates on the CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram (hence the use of the relative SPD and not the absolute SPD, because the white point is only related to ...
Apple Inc developed displays using the P3 primaries, and the corresponding Display P3 color space. [17] [18] While it uses standard P3 RGB primaries, the white point is D65 instead of the DCI ~6300 K white point. The D65 white point is the existing standard for common sRGB and devices (Adobe RGB also uses D65).
A list of standardized illuminants, their CIE chromaticity coordinates (x,y) of a perfectly reflecting (or transmitting) diffuser, and their correlated color temperatures (CCTs) are given below. The CIE chromaticity coordinates are given for both the 2 degree field of view (1931) and the 10 degree field of view (1964). [1]
A comparison between a typical normalized M cone's spectral sensitivity and the CIE 1931 luminosity function for a standard observer in photopic vision. In the CIE 1931 model, Y is the luminance, Z is quasi-equal to blue (of CIE RGB), and X is a mix of the three CIE RGB curves chosen to be nonnegative (see § Definition of the CIE XYZ color space).
The y G coordinate too is the same, while x G is halfway between EBU Tech 3213's x G and SMPTE C's x G. The resulting BT.709 color space is almost identical to that of the BT.601-6 used by PAL and NTSC, and covers 35.9% of it. [19] It also covers 33.24% of the CIE 1976 u’v’ space [20] [21] and 33.5% of the CIE 1931 x y diagram. [21]
The D65 white point is shown in the center, and the Planckian locus is shown with color temperatures labeled in kelvins. D65 is not an ideal 6504-kelvin black body because it is based on atmospheric filtered daylight. The sRGB specification assumes a dimly lit encoding (creation) environment with an ambient correlated color temperature (CCT) of ...
The three coordinates of CIELAB represent the lightness of the color (L* = 0 yields black and L* = 100 indicates white), its position between red and green (a*, where negative values indicate green and positive values indicate red) and its position between yellow and blue (b*, where negative values indicate blue and positive values indicate yellow).
