- Thread-topic: D65 exported data
Thanks for that Andy, and for all those who responded both on and off
list.
I'm surpised at how non-intuitive this is between applications and
spectros. I would have expected that spectral data exported as D65/2 Lab
values would match measurements offline with a handheld with D65/2
degree settings, but this isn't the case. Spot measurements with an i1
at D65/2 degree between MeasureTool and BabelColor CT&A do not correlate
very well. My 939 correlates well with i1 measurements through
BabelColor at D65/2 degree, so I'm assuming that this is the "correct"
method for measurement. But herein lies the problem of handheld D65
measurements for process control and D65 measurements (from Measuretool)
for color management...apparently apples and oranges.
How would one expect to get chart measurement that correlates with a
handheld spectro considering the different calculation methods?
Mike

Thanks for all the information.
Let me ask this question, what differences would one
expect between D65 lab values derived from spectral data versus D65
values chromatically adapted from XYZ?
This is a fundamental difference.
A) gives you the color of your surface (material) under the new
(D65) illuminant
B) gives you the tristimulus values for e.g. D65 that recreate
the same appearance under D50 as you would have seen under D65.

For example, say someone is measuring sample with a
handheld with D65 as the user defined illuminant, versus, spectral data
exported out of MeasureTool , PatchTool or ColorThink. If someone were
to set up a workflow for proofing and process control utilizing D65,
what kind of issues could they potentially run into?
So MeasureTool is deriving D65 from XYZ data rather than
from spectral? Why then is this only an option when spectral data is
present?

Hello Mike,
If you compare Lab D50 vs Lab D65 (not spectral
data), then the first set of
differences makes sense, assuming that a proper
Bradford transform was made
betwen the two data sets, so that they are
compared under the same
Illuminant (either D50 OR D65).
This is the Illuminant metamerism. (or Color
Inconstancy, to be more
specific), since the Bradford transform
simulates a perfect match between
Illuminants, which is different from the actual
perceived value computed
with the spectral data (i.e. your initially
exported data which combines the
Illuminant spectra and the target spectra).
However, I do not understand what exactly you
are comparing in the second
case.
.
Please send me the file and the steps you do in
the second part.
Thanks,
Danny
