Quote from: S.Yu on November 24, 2022, 16:22:47Apple's methodology is definitely more reasonable. 25% APL is actually a lot. Generally speaking a properly exposed daylight picture should be around 20-40% APL, with a lot of sun and clear skies in the picture there could be more, but that would fall into the minority. Night scenes shouldn't exceed 15% APL, in fact 5% APL is not uncommon.
But 1% APL is definitely a very dark picture. A moonlit scene with the moon and stars overexposed should be about 1% APL, which is basically meaningless except for brags.
