(Kelvin) In lighting terms, people sometimes talk about cold light and warm light. Many people will immediately think of the warmth of a light, but that is not what is meant here. Cold or warm light indicates how the light looks, or the light image. The higher the Kelvin number, the colder and whiter the light will radiate. The lower the Kel...

(from the article `motion-picture technology`) Light is also measurable in terms of colour temperature. Light rich in red rays has a low reading in kelvins. Ordinary household light bulbs produce ... ...with a reddish overall tint—because this lighting is richer in red rays than is daylight. This spectral balance of different “...

(Digital cameras and photo printers) Describes the spectral energy distribution and thereby the colour quality of a light source. The temperature of a colour is given in Kelvin (K). It is important to choose the correct temperature so that a subject can be photographed in its true colours. The spectrum that can be seen by the human eye lies betwee...

Colours are warm, hot or cold in appearance; orange, red, blue. This is true within each category of colour. There are hotter and colder colours in every category.

Description of the colour of a light-source by comparing it with the colour of light emitted by a (theoretical) perfect radiator at a particular temperature expressed in Kelvin (K). Thus 'photographic daylight' has a colour temperature of about 5500K. Photographic tungsten lights have colour temperatures of either 3400K or 3200K depending on their ...

Indicates the hue of the colour. It is derived from photography where the spectrum of colours is based upon a comparison of the hues produced when a black body (as in Physics) is heated from red through yellow to blue, which is the hottest. Colour temperature measurements are expressed in Kelvin (not degrees Kelvin).

Measured in Kelvin, expressed on a scale (i.e.3400K) this indicates the colour content and quality of a light source light such as a lamp. (see Tungsten film)

the colour quality of light (whether it is 'warm' or 'cool'); it is measured using the Kelvin scale. The colour temperature of daylight, for example, is approx. 5500ºK. If a camera is using film or sensors for a specific colour temperature and the lighting is not of that colour temperature, the colours will be recorded incorrectly. Colour temper...

A measure for the predominant colour portion of the light, measuring unit Kelvin. The higher the blue share in the light, the higher the colour temperature.
