"sampToNits"
a FloatAttribute that gives the absolute scale
to get from sample values to Nits (cd/m^2) for the
purposes of photometric calibration
[...] also add a parameter to record the CIE (x,y) chromaticities of
each color channel, plus the white point. This is standardized in TIFF
as tag 319 (TIFFTAG_PRIMARYCHROMATICITIES in Leffler's library), and
consists of 6 floating-point values. In addition, tag 318
(TIFFTAG_WHITEPOINT) is two floats that hold the white point CIE (x,y)
coordinates.
I suggest that we add a single "chromaticities" attribute whose value
is a struct:
struct CieChromaticities
{
V2f red;
V2f green;
V2f blue;
V2f white;
};
"White" is somewhat ill-defined in HDR images.
For the purpose of defining the chromaticity of
the white point, will it be necessary to state
something like "white means R, G, and B are
all 1.0", or is it enough to say "white means
R, G, and B are equal"?
