>If he means YCrCb (a typo above, not YCbCr) >then the primaries and the white point for RGB are NTSC values. Sorry, I don't follow this. How can definining the target space also define the source space? Surely the input could be NTSC RGB, Apple RGB, Adobe RGB (1998), wide gamut RGB, BruceRGB, PAL/SECAM RGB, Kodak Open Interchange RGB, sRGB, your personal monitor RGB, or any other RGB, and the transformation must therefore be dependent on the source space. Each RGB has a characteristic set of primaries, white and black point, matrixes and gamma. Except for a mention of sRGB, and an occasional mention of NTSC primaries, your document - valuable and thorough as it is - doesn't really seem to accomodate the reality of many different RGB spaces, and indeed suggests that there is a single RGB to XYZ transformation. It may be that there is more to the term "Standard Primaries r,g,b" in chapter 5 than I understand, but I feel you should define to the reader what Standard you have adopted. Aandi Inston
