  2. Luminous efficacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_efficacy

    Not all wavelengths of light are equally visible, or equally effective at stimulating human vision, due to the spectral sensitivity of the human eye; radiation in the infrared and ultraviolet parts of the spectrum is useless for illumination. The luminous efficacy of a source is the product of how well it converts energy to electromagnetic ...

  3. Exposure value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exposure_value

    E is the image-plane illuminance (lux or lumens/m²) t is the exposure time ("shutter speed") (seconds) The illuminance E is controlled by the f-number but also depends on the scene luminance. To avoid confusion, some authors (Ray 2000, 310) have used camera exposure to refer to combinations of camera settings.

  5. Exposure (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exposure_(photography)

    In a scene with strong or harsh lighting, the ratio between highlight and shadow luminance values may well be larger than the ratio between the film's maximum and minimum useful exposure values. In this case, adjusting the camera's exposure settings (which only applies changes to the whole image, not selectively to parts of the image) only ...

  6. Candela - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candela

    The 26th General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) redefined the candela in 2018. [10] [11] The new definition, which took effect on 20 May 2019, is: The candela [...] is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the luminous efficacy of monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 × 10 12 Hz, [a] K cd, to be 683 when expressed in the unit lm W −1, which is equal to cd sr W −1 ...

  7. Guide number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guide_number

    An incident-light meter measures the true luminous exposure (in lux⋅seconds) arriving at a scene. The magnitude of guide numbers is a function of the following four variables: The total luminous energy (in lumen⋅seconds) emitted by the flash head (which is itself the product of the duration and the average luminous flux of a flash).

  9. Illuminance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminance

    Illuminance diagram with units and terminology. In photometry, illuminance is the total luminous flux incident on a surface, per unit area. [1] It is a measure of how much the incident light illuminates the surface, wavelength-weighted by the luminosity function to correlate with human brightness perception. [2]
