Im also still very confused about all the places you can input different values getting totally different results. Maybe Im missing something but the thing I can`t wrap my head around is: why does the editor under lit > ev100 value differ vastly from setting ev100 in a PPV under exposure. shouldn’t min max brightness (Exposure) translate to ev100… In my scenes editor ev100 set to 6 (value for interior lighting taken from wikipedia) matches to something like min max brightness set to around 70… (under auto exposure in PPV)
In order to match the viewport ev100 of 6 to the PPV min/max brightness of 6 I need to do an exposure compensation of -3.7
Im pretty sure Im doing it wrong… but I`d love to understand where I went wrong
(my scene lights are around 500-5000lm btw and Im also trying to figure out if those settings are correct. Its not helpful to see that the unitless value of 1000lm is 49735. that irritates me even more)
