Is there a (simple) way to get at a particular camera sensors spectral sensitivities?
Simplest is to get it from somebody else. Cheap is to build your own large-sized spectroscope, photograph a spectrum, and combine it with various other measurements and math and what-not. I still need to type up and post instructions and plans and what-not. But the basic idea is that if you know the SPD reaching the sensor (which is a product of the illuminant and the efficiencies of everything between the illuminant and the sensor -- presumably, just the diffraction grating and the lens) then you can treat the rainbow image as a standard chart image to get your RGB values. Assuming the sensor is linear (a good assumption if your capture technique is impeccable), that's your spectral sensitivity. Cheers, b&
