Can anyone tell how to measure the R1-R14 [0] values of a LED lamp? It seems like a sort of a Gretag-Macbeth [1] card is used. Can I use a photospectrometer [2]

Can anyone tell how to measure the R1-R14 [0] values of a LED lamp? It seems like a sort of a Gretag-Macbeth [1] card is used. Can I use a photospectrometer [2]? I'd like to measure R9 [3] & R13 myself.

- andreareina 9y agoThere seems to be little overlap in the Munsell colors between the two[1][2]. There does appear to be a variant that uses some ColorChecker patches[3], or there's another calculation that just goes directly off of the light's emission spectrum[4], assuming your spectrometer has enough resolution. I think in practice, an ad-hoc comparison of the ColorChecker under daylight/D65 and the light in question will yield good enough results.
