[Radiance-general] Color reflectance values and materials..

[David Smith]

Iebele,

I'm about as far removed from being a color expert as one can get. I
got the method from a thread in the forums for AGi32, and the method
has worked reasonably well for me (some tweaking required). I'm not
sure if the method is just a hack, but Ian Ashdown was the person who
suggested it, as well as some further reading on color science. Here's

Also, Konica-Minolta makes a luminance meter, CS-100A, that will give
you the XYZE values of what it's looking at, but I'm sure it costs a
small fortune. I think it's the one that Axel had just mentioned.
