I'm converting a spare room into a small studio, mainly for product shots. I'll be painting the walls a neutral grey. I came across this site:
Lab, RGB, CYMK and HLC Values, from which I can select a manufacturer (ie in the UK Dulux) and pick a colour (ie Night Jewel range), which have a&b values of 0 (ie neutral). Then I have to pick the reflectance value I can stand. Too dark (ie a photographic 18%) value and it will be like living in a cave - my wife will grumble ...
For ref: I believe the reflectance values for 18% are 41 and 12% is 50.
Maybe this will be useful for any future cave dwellers ...
