Abstract: In 1967 Bartleson and Breneman applied experimental results of scaled brightness perceptions in complex fields to the analysis of image tone reproduction (Jour. Opt. Soc. Am., 57: 953, 1967). Other workers have suggested the use of brightness perception data obtained with simple-field viewing conditions for tone reproduction analysis. There are, however, significant differences between the perceptual functions for simple- and complex-field viewing. This paper describes the effects of one such difference on the estimation of optimum tone reproduction gradients. It is shown that the complex-field data relate more realistically to tone reproduction requirements in that they accord better with independent, empirical results found in the study of optimum tone reproduction. A simplified expression for predicting relative brightnesses in complex images is proposed for use in studies of tone reproduction.
