Been spending a lot of time on here!
^^ what exactly do they mean by 12% or 18%? 18% or 12% of what, and what is 100% or 0%?
I'm guessing this is something left over from densitometers and film, right? Or percentage on a logarithmic scale, maybe? If you dial in 18% of black in your favorite imaging app, you'll get a very dark shade. So what's up with this "middle grey" at "18%"?
This is teh one thing that always confused me.
