What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms luminance measurements from millilambert (mL), a non-SI photometric unit used in cinematography and imaging, into candela per square centimeter, a derived unit ideal for small high-brightness surfaces such as LEDs and display subpixels.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the luminance value in millilambert you wish to convert.
- Choose millilambert as the input unit and candela per square centimeter as the output unit.
- Click the convert button to receive the corresponding luminance value in candela per square centimeter.
Key Features
- Converts luminance from millilambert to candela per square centimeter accurately according to defined conversion rates.
- Supports legacy data transformation for cinematography, broadcast engineering, and imaging lab applications.
- Provides easy unit selection for two specific luminance units common in display and lighting fields.
Examples
- 5 millilamberts converts to approximately 0.0015915495 candela per square centimeter.
- 10 millilamberts converts to approximately 0.003183099 candela per square centimeter.
Common Use Cases
- Translating luminance from legacy cinematography units for calibration and analysis.
- Specifying the brightness of small high-intensity light sources such as camera viewfinders or LEDs.
- Describing luminance of display elements like CRT phosphors and OLED subpixels in engineering contexts.
Tips & Best Practices
- Ensure correct selection of input and output units to maintain conversion accuracy.
- Use this tool primarily for luminance values related to small emitting surfaces or legacy units.
- Verify the context of your measurement to apply the appropriate luminance unit for your needs.
Limitations
- Millilambert is a non-SI and somewhat outdated unit often limited to specific industries.
- Candela per square centimeter is best suited for small emitting surfaces and may not apply well to large areas.
- High precision conversion depends on exact measurements of surface area and luminous intensity.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does millilambert measure?
- Millilambert is a non-SI luminance unit representing the luminous intensity emitted or reflected per unit area into a unit solid angle, often used in cinematography.
- Why convert millilambert to candela per square centimeter?
- Converting helps translate legacy legacy luminance values to units better suited for describing brightness of small, high-intensity light sources like LEDs and display pixels.
- Is candela per square centimeter an SI unit?
- No, candela per square centimeter is a non-SI derived unit commonly used for small emitting areas, equal to 10,000 candela per square meter.
Key Terminology
- Millilambert (mL)
- A non-SI unit of luminance equal to one thousandth of a lambert, used mainly in cinematography and imaging to quantify luminous intensity from surfaces.
- Candela per Square Centimeter
- A non-SI luminance unit expressing luminous intensity per unit projected area, commonly applied to small, bright emitting areas like LEDs and display pixels.
- Luminance
- A measure of luminous intensity emitted or reflected from a surface per unit area in a given direction.
