Digital Imaging Reset Week 7
This week we played some more with white balance.
The photos with the purple mat were to show that some colors are simply not possible to capture with a digital camera because they simply do not exist within the sensor’s color space.
The image processing software and hardware simply remaps the color to a color within its space.
You can get close but you will never get to the exact color with the current sensors we have today.
