11、dies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizatio

12、ns, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the I

13、SO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the

14、member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.ISO 17321-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 42, Photography, i

15、n collaboration with ISO/TC 130, Graphic technology.This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 17321-1:2006), of which it constitutes a minor revision with the following changes: in 4.3.3.4.2, the typographical error “senor image area” was corrected to “sensor image area”; in B.

16、2.6, a broken link to tools for non-linear optimization has been updated.ISO 17321 consists of the following parts, under the general title Graphic technology and photography Colour characterization of digital still cameras (DSCs): Part 1: Stimuli, metrology and test procedures Part 2: Consideration

17、s for determining scene analysis transforms Technical Reportiv ISO 2012 All rights reservedBS ISO 17321-1:2012ISO 17321-1:2012(E)IntroductionThe spectral responses of the colour analysis channels of digital still cameras (DSCs) do not, in general, match those of a typical human observer, such as def

18、ined by the CIE standard colorimetric observer. Nor do the responses of different DSCs ordinarily match each other. In characterizing DSCs, it is therefore necessary to take account of the DSC spectral sensitivities, illumination, and encoding colour space. This part of ISO 17321 will begin to addre

19、ss these considerations. This part of ISO 17321 defines stimuli (spectral illumination or a colour target), metrology and photographic test procedures for acquiring DSC characterization data. It specifies test procedures for “scenes”, the most general picture taking conditions where metameric colour

20、s and a range of illumination sources are encountered. It also specifies test procedures for hardcopy “originals”, a more narrowly defined picture-taking condition in which the illumination source and the colorants being imaged are pre-defined.ISO 17321 will distinguish among several possible image

21、representations in different colour encodings as depicted in Figure 1 which shows the diagram of a generic image workflow for digital photography.Figure 1 Generic image workflow for digital photographyThe DSC characterizations obtained using this part of ISO 17321 will be applicable to raw (sensor-r

22、eferred) DSC data. Two alternative methods are described for obtaining these characterization data. Method A, the spectral method, uses spectral lights as stimuli for measuring the colour performance of a DSC. Method B, the target method, involves the use of a physical colour test target under speci

23、fic lighting conditions to measure DSC colour performance. Annexes A to C recommend a laboratory set-up for photographing reflection targets, provide target patch selection criteria, and provide a digital still camera metamerism index.

24、2(E)Some operations (colour pixel reconstruction, flare removal, white balancing) can be performed without disqualifying the DSC data as being raw. However, operations that render the image data so that they become output-referred (ready to display or to print) generally do disqualify the data. With

25、 such cameras, this standard can only be applied if the capability exists to extract or to regenerate raw data, e.g. by applying the inverse of the rendering transform or by tapping the appropriate signals internal to the camera.The technical experts who have developed this part of ISO 17321 recogni

26、ze that a standard that could be applied generally to any (not just raw) DSC output would be desirable. Such a standard is problematic for DSCs that employ colour-rendering algorithms in order to produce output-referred image data. For such DSCs, it would frequently be impossible to determine if col

27、our analysis errors relative to the scene or original captured were due to sensor image encoding errors or to proprietary colour rendering algorithms. The only way to make this distinction is if the colour rendering used is well documented and available, and the rendered data can be converted to un-

28、rendered data by inverting the colour rendering. This situation is unlikely to occur because one of the major differentiators in DSC performance is the colour rendering. Sophisticated colour-rendering algorithms can be image dependent, and locally varying within an image. This makes it extremely dif

29、ficult to reliably determine the exact colour rendering used by analysing captured test scenes.The purpose of this part of ISO 17321 is both to assist in the characterization of DSCs for colour management purposes and to assist camera manufacturers in the determination of the colour analysis capabil

30、ities of DSCs that they are developing. This standard is applicable to any DSC intended for photographic or graphic technology applications. However, for many users it is not practical to apply this part of ISO 17321 to individual DSCs. Some of the measurements described in this part of ISO 17321 re

31、quire complex, expensive measurement equipment. In the case of test targets that are commercially produced, spectral as well as colorimetric measurement data would ideally accompany the target.Those unfamiliar with this part of ISO 17321 are encouraged to read through the entire standard (in particu

32、lar the informative annexes) before proceeding with DSC characterization, in order to verify appropriateness for their particular application. In some cases, the procedures described in the multimedia standard, IEC 61966-95might be more applicable.It is proposed that other parts of ISO 17321 will be

33、 developed in the future to deal with other aspects of the colour characterization of digital still cameras.vi ISO 2012 All rights reservedBS ISO 17321-1:2012INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17321-1:2012(E)Graphic technology and photography Colour characterisation of digital still cameras (DSCs) Part 1: S

34、timuli, metrology and test procedures1 ScopeThis part of ISO 17321 specifies colour stimuli, metrology, and test procedures for the colour characterization of a digital still camera (DSC) to be used for photography and graphic technology. Two methods are provided, one using narrow spectral band illu

35、mination and the other using a spectrally and colorimetrically calibrated target. Except for a specific set of permitted data operations, these DSC data are raw.This part of ISO 17321 does not specify the methods for deriving transformations from raw DSC data in order to estimate scene colorimetry.2

The method that is most applicable in any particular situation depends on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the following: the extent of ones prior knowledge about the spectral content of the scenes or originals to be captured; the equipment available;

47、the accuracy required.The spectral method requires elaborate equipment in a laboratory environment, but can be used to produce characterization data for samples with arbitrary spectral distributions. The target method is suitable for studio and field use, but can only provide accurate characterizati
