Tips & Best Practices

Always verify the unit consistency when performing conversions
Remember that lumen/sq. cm/steradian values are numerically smaller due to unit scaling
Use the correct conversion formula to avoid significant errors
Consider uniformity assumptions in luminance measurements for accurate results
Check calibration standards when working with high-intensity or micro-scale luminance

Limitations

Numerical values in lumen/sq. cm/steradian are smaller due to the area unit difference, requiring careful scaling
The conversion presumes uniform luminance over the measured area, which may not apply for microscopic variations
Measurement errors can occur if unit consistency is not maintained throughout the process
