Color Management Introduction and Basics - Session 2: on CD Color Fundamentals
In this session we describe basic color principles that are relevant to practical color management. We investigate things like the D50 illuminant, light booths, metamerism, and fluorescence. A major part of this session will explain CIE color specifications including CIE Lab and Delta E. We will also look at the range of measuring instruments available from X-Rite and GretagMacbeth and help you choose an instrument suitable for you.
