The title here is terrible because over-saturation is an effect of poor tone mapping, which is inevitable if you want to display an HDR image in a low dynamic range display. An accurate title would be the end of over-exposed images, but why not just keep the original?
- kps 11y agoTwo different senses of the word ‘saturation’. The subtitle of the article (current title here) is unfortunate.
- tyingq 11y agoYes. I expected to see an article about stock images being overused across lots of publications, and whatever the fix for that is.
- IshKebab 11y agoThey're talking about the pixel brightness values getting saturated (255), not colour saturation. But I've never heard over-saturation being used to refer to brightness saturation - brightness is either saturated or not.
- ssalazar 11y agoI'd guess whoever wrote the article subtitle comes from an EE or DSP background, where saturation refers to blowing out the ends of the dynamic range and clipping/distorting.
- sctb 11y agoWe updated the submission title to the article's.
