I think 5500K will be a more accurate white point. For example, my all screens are obviously less bluish than 6500K lamps but also less warm than 4000K lamps, i don't have a 5000K/5500K lamp to compare but i think they are about 5500K. Can anyone update this image and template to make the white point 5500K (or more preferably make the template allow custom white points, and even gammas)? (The lowest and highest values given must also be changed, and even the current lowest value is wrong (it does not give pure red). This discussion is more about the image and template but i think discussing it there can be make it more centralized.) <a href="/wiki/User:RuzDD" title="User:RuzDD">RuzDD</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:RuzDD" title="User talk:RuzDD">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Color_temperature#c-RuzDD-20240206131800-White_point_=_6500K?" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">13:18, 6 February 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-RuzDD-20240206131800-White_point_=_6500K?"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-RuzDD-20240206131800-White_point_=_6500K?"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-RuzDD-20240206132600-RuzDD-20240206131800"></span>Addition: Colors of <a href="/wiki/File:CFBulbs.jpg" title="File:CFBulbs.jpg">File:CFBulbs.jpg</a> looks very realistic to me with my screens, and i think most of LCD (and probably ?LED) screens have ~5500K white points like mine displays. <a href="/wiki/User:RuzDD" title="User:RuzDD">RuzDD</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:RuzDD" title="User talk:RuzDD">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Color_temperature#c-RuzDD-20240206132600-RuzDD-20240206131800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">13:26, 6 February 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-RuzDD-20240206132600-RuzDD-20240206131800"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-RuzDD-20240206132600-RuzDD-20240206131800"></span></dd> <dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Curran919-20240206202300-RuzDD-20240206131800"></span>The use of 6500K is very much intentional here.

However, most color science uses D65 (6504K) as the default illuminant, since it is generally under this illuminant that human color vision evolved (average midday light in Western Europe... so mind the eurocentricity), and therefore is expected to represent a true neutral illuminant, if such a thing can even be said to exist.

You have to add direct sunlight and the blue sky light integrated over the sky's visible solid angle (ideally, a hemisphere) to get the daylight standard illuminant, which is estimated by D65. If you block out the scattered, indirect skylight at noon, you will get close to 5700K with direct sunlight alone (though I don't know if that changes after passing through the <a href="/wiki/Atmospheric_window" title="Atmospheric window">atmospheric window</a>). At sunset, the direct sunlight passes through so much atmosphere, that it drops to 2000K, which is why so many people characterize the sun as being yellow instead of white, as it is (almost) by definition.

Trying to define "white" as a specific spectrum is like trying to define <a href="/wiki/Room_temperature" title="Room temperature">room temperature</a> as a specific temperature. There is not one real answer, because what feels like the ideal neutral ambient temperature is going to change depending on circumstance. It can be useful to define it at 25*C to have a standard, but that doesn't mean it is a ground truth. Someone can easily come and say, "actually, I feel like room temp should be 24 or 26*C", which may feel more neutral to them given their local humidity, windchill, etc. as well as them subjectively due to their base body temperature... but if they try to write an exam by saying "I'm going to assume ambient temperature as 26*C instead of the standard ambient 25*C", its going to confused the prof and probably get marked wrong. Thats why we have standards. Not only is your perception of the white point highly dependent on all of your environmental conditions (as I explained), its also quite subjective, given the variance in color vision, such as the ratio of blue to green/red cones, which determines the blue-yellow color axis that is approximately parallel to the daylight locus near the white point. Of course, that cone ratio shouldn't matter much due to <a href="/wiki/Color_constancy" title="Color constancy">color constancy</a> and <a href="/wiki/Chromatic_adaptation" title="Chromatic adaptation">chromatic adaptation</a> (<i>you haven't acknowledged these terms, which are critical to the understanding of this concept, so I don't know if I'm screaming into the void</i>), but that's exactly the point, that white is... fluid... and we just need to agree on a standard, which the world has largely treated as defaut D65 for most color appearance models. <a href="/wiki/User:Curran919" title="User:Curran919">Curran919</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Curran919" title="User talk:Curran919">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Color_temperature#c-Curran919-20240207155500-RuzDD-20240206232100" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:55, 7 February 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Curran919-20240207155500-RuzDD-20240206232100"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Curran919-20240207155500-RuzDD-20240206232100"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-RuzDD-20240207161200-Curran919-20240207155500"></span>I know those, but i i think there's a better way to define the ideal "room temperature". We find the average air temperature of the earth for all places and all times, and this will be a more good standard. Same way, i think getting the average sunlight temperature (average, in all places and all times, for example not only noon's) of the earth will give a more accurate average (and, physics says this must be same with the photosphere temperature of the sun otherwise sun must have very different photosphere temperatures in different positions). That's 5772K, and i think it will be better to round it to 5500K so the difference will be very rounded. <a href="/wiki/User:RuzDD" title="User:RuzDD">RuzDD</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:RuzDD" title="User talk:RuzDD">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Color_temperature#c-RuzDD-20240207161200-Curran919-20240207155500" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:12, 7 February 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-RuzDD-20240207161200-Curran919-20240207155500"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-RuzDD-20240207161200-Curran919-20240207155500"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Curran919-20240207161900-RuzDD-20240207161200"></span>@<a href="/wiki/User:RuzDD" title="User:RuzDD">RuzDD</a> well then you need to take it up with CIE, not Wikipedia! <a href="/wiki/User:Curran919" title="User:Curran919">Curran919</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Curran919" title="User talk:Curran919">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Color_temperature#c-Curran919-20240207161900-RuzDD-20240207161200" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:19, 7 February 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Curran919-20240207161900-RuzDD-20240207161200"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Curran919-20240207161900-RuzDD-20240207161200"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-RuzDD-20240207163300-Curran919-20240207161900"></span>According to <a href="/wiki/Standard_illuminant" title="Standard illuminant">standard illuminant</a> CIE already created many different whitepoints including D55. <a href="/wiki/User:RuzDD" title="User:RuzDD">RuzDD</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:RuzDD" title="User talk:RuzDD">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Color_temperature#c-RuzDD-20240207163300-Curran919-20240207161900" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:33, 7 February 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-RuzDD-20240207163300-Curran919-20240207161900"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-RuzDD-20240207163300-Curran919-20240207161900"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Curran919-20240207220600-RuzDD-20240207163300"></span>@<a href="/wiki/User:RuzDD" title="User:RuzDD">RuzDD</a> That article is a bit outdated.

The star looks blue to us now, but if we evolved on a planet around Vega, the most useful perceptual white point, that which would allow us to see the most colors on Vega would be 9600K and not equal energy white (~5405K). We'd likely evolve to have that as a "default" white point, and equal energy white would look very yellow to us.

It might work better to put a narrower strip on a black background and then at least roughly equalize the lightness across the gradient. Even better might be to limit it to, say, 3000–9000K CCT, and just show a circular spot of the same lightness for each example, against a black background, instead of a gradient. If these are all representing "white" then it's to some extent inherently misleading to show a smooth gradient at all. –<a href="/wiki/User:Jacobolus" title="User:Jacobolus">jacobolus</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Jacobolus" title="User talk:Jacobolus">(t)</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Color_temperature#c-Jacobolus-20240207173100-Curran919-20240207154400" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:31, 7 February 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Jacobolus-20240207173100-Curran919-20240207154400"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Jacobolus-20240207173100-Curran919-20240207154400"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-RuzDD-20240207183500-Jacobolus-20240207173100"></span>@<a href="/wiki/User:Jacobolus" title="User:Jacobolus">Jacobolus</a> I think gradient is better bacause it allows users to select much more colors, and i think narrower things will be less understandable.
