gamma
Depending on the value V of this field, the following gamma correction is applied to the image pixels:
-
V > 0
Given a normalized image pixel valueN, the resulting linear pixel valueLis computed asL = pow(N, V). -
V = -2.2
The normalized image pixel value is fed into the sRGB decompression function (which can be approximated with a power of 2.2) and the resulting value is used as the linear pixel value. -
V = -0.45455
The normalized image pixel value is fed into the sRGB compression function (which can be approximated with a power of 0.45455) and the resulting value value is used as the linear pixel value (which is not correct in a mathematical sense, but might be necessary in rare cases). -
For all other values of
V, the normalized and linear pixel values are treated as being equivalent.
