Abstract
Color photography is an exacting endeavor. When we see a beautiful and apparently accurate color reproduction on a motion picture screen, we see the product of a long train of precision work. It is work with little tolerance of trial and error; errors can run in too many directions and can appear in too many places to be discovered and overtaken by trial. Economical practice of color photography affords little room for operation by guess or even by estimate. It demands operation by measurement. This measurement must result in quantitative knowledge of the character of the materials in use, of the effects of laboratory handling, and of the nature of the photographic images formed-knowledge sufficiently accurate and comprehensive to insure efficient production of best possible results. The science which specifies most of these measurements, and the ways of making them, is photographic sensitometry.
