Abstract

The crucial importance of the light source to successful colour matching can now be quickly and emphatically demonstrated with the Munsell Matchpoint Metameric Colour rule available from Macbeth. Operating as a slide rule, it provides quantitative evidence of the degree of metamerism — colours apparantly matching under one lighting condition mismatching under another — which is a prime consideration to those involved in making critical colour matching decisions. In addition, it can be used to compare the colour vision characteristics of people when used under a common light source.
