Notes on color measurement
When opening a Minolta-RAW image (p. 64), color information recorded on location with a Minolta
color meter can be used to set the white balance of the image. If the image is captured under a
continuous source like the sun or tungsten lighting, the corresponding measurement can be very
effective in balancing the color of the image. However, because the spectral response of the camera's
CCD and the color meter are not the same, if images are captured under lighting with a
discontinuous line spectrum like fluorescent or mercury vapor, the values recorded with the color
meter may not result in an accurate reproduction.
