Fundamentals High Dynamic Range: Merging a Bracket, Then Checking It Against a Meter
Eighteen exposures of a 17-stop scene, merged into one radiance map, calibrated with a single scale factor fitted on one patch — and then compared with the colorimeter readings taken in the room. The other 47 points land a median of 0.198 stops away, 0.109 stops across the neutral patches, and every large error is at the dark end.

Fundamentals Image Sensing: What the Number in a Pixel Actually Counts
The unit overview: how a photon becomes an integer, why that integer is a random variable, what the tone curve did to it before you saw it, and how eighteen exposures merge back into light you can put a unit on. Measured on one scene: gain 0.294 DN per electron, a full well near 13,200 e⁻, and a merged bracket that lands 0.109 stops from a colorimeter across the neutral patches.
