We perceive ratios of Luminance<br />

• luminance is expressed in units of candela<br />

per square metre, cd/m 2<br />

• non-English languages may name it shortly<br />

and conveniently: nit, symbol 'nt'<br />

• luminance can <strong>be</strong> documented by any<br />

camera giving raw counts from its CCD or<br />

CMOS pixels; knowing the exposure<br />

settings, the only parameter <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> found is<br />

a proportionality constant, valid forever<br />
