Hi,
I have been using the "light meter" module to measure the light intensity from a camera. I found out the range is from 2 to 260. I wonder if there is a way to maximize the range? Say increase to 300 from 260?
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hmm, might the max be 256? As in 8-bit binary?

While I'm with Bob .. about the U8 light value ...
to increase the value range just multiply with a gain factor 🙂
gain=($desired_max_value)/($actual_max_value) ( = 300/255 ??)
However the resolution is still U8 😄

Hi Bob,
Yeah! It is an 8bit image so it is 256. It now makes sense to me.
Thanks

Thanks Henrik! That's a good idea. Since the grey intensity shows two more digit after the decimal, it would at least look nice when multiple a big number.
