Abstract
We have made a still camera which could acquire XYZ tristimulus values, and constructed high fidelity color reproduction system. In this paper, we examined the efficient method of evaluating quality of metallic topcoats by using this system. We made images by changing chroma, hue, luminance and luminance of flake pigments, and obtained the tolerance by the subjectivity evaluation experiment. As a result, we obtained the relation of linear between threshold about luminance of flake pigments and value or area of it, threshold about the others and standard deviation of luminance. We propose the method by using this relation.
