- Projector buyers comparing brightness and color accuracy

- It distinguishes usable brightness from maximum output: usable lumens require a color grade of C or better and a white temperature from 6000K to 10000K.
Field notes
The grading key uses SDR ColorChecker measurements: A corresponds to ΔE below 3, while F is above 20. For its “accurate” brightness figure, the site specifies an A color grade and a white color temperature between 6300K and 7500K. It also says documented errors may be corrected, and erroneous reports may be replaced or removed.
