Hi Greg, hi everyone else,
This is an example of an rsp file (Optio 430):
3 1.44593 -0.999398 0.575389 -0.0219197
3 1.23165 -0.639997 0.413386 -0.00504164
3 1.07103 -0.436035 0.351256 0.0137438
Is it correct to assume that the 1st coefficient is the highest one (3rd
order in this case), so would the formula be (for Red channel):
'PENTAX Optio 430 '
1.44593*x**3 + -0.999398*x**2 + 0.575389*x + -0.0219197
If so, then this is a plot for some cams I've created with gnuplot (again
Red only):

If plotted for x [0:255], that would give a dynamic range of 7 log units
for one photograph. Seem a bit excessive. Am I missing some important
detail here?
Cheers
Axel
Hi Axel,
Your interpretation of the coefficients is correct, but the [0-255] values are converted to a [0-1] range being put into the polynomials. This would account for your odd results.
