Well, I thought I was done with the preliminaries, but it occurs to me that the standard deviation is going to vary linearly with exposure. I wrote some code to check that and correct for it. Then I came up with a way to simultaneously correct for overall exposure variation, and exposure variation caused by… [Read More]

Before I deal with all the uncontrollable and semi-controllable variables involved in making actual test photographs, I did some simulation to make sure the target would work the way I thought it would under completely controlled, albeit unreal, conditions. I wrote this Matlab script: I ran it, and plotted the results. As expected, more low-pass… [Read More]
