Color of Lights / Light Render Speed Comparison
Posted: Sat Dec 12, 2009 12:47 am
Representing the color of light correctly is very difficult, and yet very critical for realistic results.
If you are looking to solve this puzzle sooner rather than later... here are some links to review...
Color Temperature Article in Wikipedia
A Kelvin Color Chart
RGB Values to 'start with' when you know your light source in Kelvin
The Light Render Speed Comparison below uses WHITE LIGHT. For more realistic render please put correct color temperature light!
This is NOT INTENDED to be the definitive answer how a light will appear, or how long it will take to render, it is only meant as a ROUGH REFERENCE GUIDE.
Individual results will vary.
