Thank you so much! that explained everything. My understanding is 1. Human eye's light sensitivity is lower than that of the camera's. (ex. 50% light in camera is about 25% in human eye) 2. Gamma Correction, is a process that uses a mathematical model to match the digital screen light levels to that of the human eye's. 3. As the result, Gamma correction evenly distribute the light level across a digital screen which appears to be natural lighting to the human eye.

Hi. I love your videos, you put a lot of work on them and they are very concise and informative. However, there is a fundamental mistake in this one you probably might want to revisit. Gamma correction is a curve applied to "cancel" the curve from a gamma-encoded image. Our non-linear perception is the reason for the encoding, not the correction. We want to see the images in ratios as close to the ratios present in the capture image as possible. And that means that our eyes will have to receive light in the same ratios the camera "saw". If all digital images were 32-bit float images, gamma correction wouldn't exist, as cameras would capture and store linearly, and displays shouldn't have to apply any curve to them. But since we're still using 8-bit integer images a lot, computers need a way to store them in that precision. Linear won't cut it, because of our non-linear perception: our eyes are more sensitive to shadows, and 128 levels of brightness for the darker parts of the image won't be enough to represent a smooth gradient, you'll se a lot of banding. So, images have to be accommodated to allocate more bitdepth for the shadows, leaving less precision for lighter parts, the ones we have less sensitiity to. That's gamma encoding, and that's the bending gamma correction cancels. You have all the pieces there in your video, but the leading idea is unfortunately wrong
@gespertino
@gespertino 11 ай бұрын
And to address the question: "why linear images look wrong when displayed directy" that most of the people reading this might have at this point, the answer is simple: Monitors are applying a gamma-correction automatically, but since the images not gamma-encoded (when you dump linear to the display) you end up looking at a non-linear image.

ERRATA: Adding ONE light, as in the example, does not DOUBLE the amount of light (or photons) hitting the paper, this is because of something called the inverse square law. In order to DOUBLE the amount of photons it would require adding THREE additional lights. Please correct me if I am wrong. Otherwise, thank you for a very well explained video on Gamma curves. Kudos for the 4K upload as well!
@VideoTechExplained
@VideoTechExplained 2 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure how the inverse square law applies in this case. In my demonstration, I'm assuming the two lights are perfectly pointed at the exact same spot, in which case there would be twice as many photons reflecting off of that point. Granted, the alignment wasn't actually perfect in my practical demonstration, but the point still holds. If you take two identical sources of light and point them at the same spot, there will be twice as many photons reflecting off of it as there would be if there was only a single light source. However, while the number of photons is doubled, our eyes don't *perceive* the spot as being twice as bright
