“‘If you put color bars on your old set, take a picture with a digital camera set to Adobe RGB or prophoto RGB, and display it on a wide-gamut monitor (or the old TV), then you should see the NTSC primaries and secondaries reproduced, sort of.”

THE COLOR BARS TODAY WOULD BE SMPTE C, RIGHT?

It’s interesting after 67 years, the original NTSC color gamut has not been exceeded. RCA had lofty goals in the design of the CT-100, then dumbed down later receivers. The consumer was never going to notice the difference and “brighter was better.” The 1953 NTSC color gamut was actually a format that was never used. Excellent paper

Edit: May I consider the color charts in your paper, especially green accurate 1953 NTSC colors? Like this one?https://visions4netjournal.com/wp-co...24396ECF8.jpeg
