Studies of Some Colorimetric Problems in Color Television
A task group on colorimetry was set up under the JCIC Ad Hoc Committee on Color Television to investigate and report on the possibility of standardizing the color rendition characteristics of color television cameras, both live and film. We have defined good color reproduction as: “The reproduced color shall have the same tristimulus values as the original illuminated by Illuminant D6500.” An aim television system which meets this standard for good color has been developed. It is represented by a mathematical model and serves as a standard for the evaluation of real systems. Data for real systems can be put into this model for comparison. Calculations have shown that a camera matrix can compensate for a number of colorimetric errors of television cameras. This computational approach has also been useful in pointing out other problem areas in the colorimetry of television systems.
