Original Abstract

This article describes the measurement uncertainties of imaging luminance measurement device based on the DSLR camera. These devices are suitable for outdoor measurements for its practicality. They are capable of fast and reliable measurement and proved as valuable instrument for the measurement of glare index and the luminance of roads, traffic signs and night sky. However, calibration of these devices are more difficult than for the ordinary luminance meter and therefore it is necessary to evaluate measurement uncertainties for the comparison with the conventional luminance meters and cameras. The expanded measurement uncertainty also depends on the camera settings e.g. f-number, shutter speed or ISO parameter. This article describes all important uncertainties of the camera and lens and propose their measurement and estimation.
