Graphic technology and photography. Colour characterisation of digital still cameras (DSCs). Stimuli, metrology and test procedures | Status: Current, Confirmed

1 Scope This part of ISO 17321 specifies colour stimuli, metrology, and test procedures for the colour characterization of a digital still camera (DSC) to be used for photography and graphic technology. Two methods are provided, one using narrow spectral band illumination and the other using a spectrally and colorimetrically calibrated target. Except for a specific set of permitted data operations, these DSC data are raw. This part of ISO 17321 does not specify the methods for deriving transformations from raw DSC data in order to estimate scene colorimetry.
