colour.models.log_encoding_VLog

colour.models.log_encoding_VLog(L_in, bit_depth=10, out_normalised_code_value=True, in_reflection=True, constants={'b': 0.00873, 'c': 0.241514, 'cut1': 0.01, 'cut2': 0.181, 'd': 0.598206}, **kwargs)

Defines the Panasonic V-Log log encoding curve / opto-electronic transfer function.

Parameters

• L_in (numeric or array_like) – Linear reflection data :math`L_{in}`.

• bit_depth (int, optional) – Bit depth used for conversion.

• out_normalised_code_value (bool, optional) – Whether the non-linear Panasonic V-Log data \(V_{out}\) is encoded as normalised code values.

• in_reflection (bool, optional) – Whether the light level :math`L_{in}` to a camera is reflection.

• constants (Structure, optional) – Panasonic V-Log constants.

Other Parameters

**kwargs (dict, optional) – Keywords arguments for deprecation management.

Returns

Non-linear data \(V_{out}\).

Return type

numeric or ndarray

Examples

>>> log_encoding_VLog(0.18)  
0.4233114...

The values of Fig.2.2 V-Log Code Value table in [Pan14] are obtained as follows:

>>> L_in = np.array([0, 18, 90]) / 100
>>> np.around(log_encoding_VLog(L_in, 10, False) * 100).astype(np.int)
array([ 7, 42, 61])
>>> np.around(log_encoding_VLog(L_in) * (2 ** 10 - 1)).astype(np.int)
array([128, 433, 602])
>>> np.around(log_encoding_VLog(L_in) * (2 ** 12 - 1)).astype(np.int)
array([ 512, 1733, 2409])

Note that some values in the last column values of Fig.2.2 V-Log Code Value table in [Pan14] are different by a code: [512, 1732, 2408].
