The Moons bond albedo is 012 meaning only 12 of incident sunlight is reflected from the lunar surface.
Color temperature of moonlight. If you have to mix the blue moonlight with warmer tungsten sources in the room and uncorrected daylight looks too blue in comparison then add some degree of warming gel to the daylight source to take some of the blue out again assuming a base color temp on the camera of around 3200K. But our perception of color during the day and at night is very different. On a clear day the sun shines at around 5000K.
And how has the colour of cinematic moonlight evolved over the decades. Why does moonlight have a lower color temperature. However the apparent color temperature of moonlight is actually cooler than broad daylight.
The ANSI standard specifies a 5000 K color temperature a color rendering index of at least 90 surface luminance for the transparency illuminator of 1400 cdm 2 and an illuminance on the viewing plane of 2200 lux for reflection materials. What Makes Moonlight Blue. I can see how someone could interpret this to mean that moonlight will reduce temperature but it simply indicates a lack of understanding of the concept to assume that moonlight will have a lower temperature than an unilluminated area some place in the.
A higher color temperature is not necessarily an indication of a higher quality or more expensive light. Higher color temperatures have more blue. North light 7500 to 10000 K.
Light bulb color temperature is represented in the unit of absolute temperature Kelvin noted by the symbol K. Moonlight has a color temperature of 4100K while sunlight has a higher color temperature of more than 5000K. Much better to set the WB yourself.
The reflection factor of the moon is twice as much for the red as for the violet. It is not a measure of temperature at all. This is not related as colour temperature is not the same thing as thermodynamic temperature.
