Optimization of the gray scale for photoscanners: concise communication.
A gray scale providing easy visual interpretation of black-and-white photoscan transparencies was determined empirically from psychophysical studies conducted on 50 observers. This optimum gray scale provides equal visualization for equal countrate changes over the entire film range.
