Colour Reproduction as a Function of Tone Scale in Negative-Positive and Reversal Systems

Research made with the support of the “Instituut tot Aanmoediging van het Wetcnschappelijk Onderoek in Nijverheid en Landbouw” (I.W.O.N.L.) of Belgium. Paper presented at a Symposium on “Optimum Results from Colour photography”, organized by the Science Committee on 3-4 December. 1964, in London.

Abstract

The object of this study is to provide o method for simulating the whole process of colour reproduction in a mathematical way, so that at any moment well-chosen changes can be introduced into the different steps of this process. This approach provides certain possiblities, when testing the quality of colour reproduction by colour material, which are not yet afforded with the required accuracy by empirical means.
