Nope, no technical problems here
I mean, I was shining my 3 AAA Lux I around out of boredom one night and noticed that on the wall it seemed to have a slight yellow tint to it. I know it's more of a blue tint from general use especially on dying batts.
Then I got thinking, 2 things.
1) Wall has some texture to it. while I can still see rings in the beam, the wall must smooth things out a bit.
2) Wall is not perfectly white, off white? Hence the slight yellow tint. I tried a piece of "white" paper, but it has a 88 brightness factor, still yellowish, moreso than the wall. If I had some good heavier 90+ brightness paper, I could get better results. Alas I have none.
Other than an integrating sphere, what would be a better way to see a more accurate representation for the tint? Not so worried about the rings.
Interesting stuffs
