TE165 A 11-STEP GRAY SCALE TEST CHART 16:9 / BT.709 Reflectance is designed for evaluation of the halftone reproduction of electronic cameras.
Two 11-graduated counter current gray scales are arranged on a gray background (D ≈ 0.56), the gray scale corresponds to the ITU recommendation BT.709.
The output signal of an optimally gamma-corrected camera according to BT.709 generates two counter current, linear step signals.
The contrast range of the gray scale is 40 : 1.
The values of the 11-graduated gray scale are as follows:
Two black fields and a white field are located between the gray scales. The density of the black fields in the middle is D > 3 (remission < 0.1 %), the white field between has a density of 0.05 (remission 89.9%).
