Discussion
For the Xicato modules evaluated, results for Rf
correlate with CIE Ra with Rf overall being around
2 points lower. Rg provides numbers that are quite
different from GAI; the difference can be 6 to 13
points. Looking at Rf and Rg combined, it can be seen
that Xicato Artist Series successfully combines the
best of both worlds and comes close to incandescent
sources (that are by definition of 100Rf and 100Rg
because they are black body radiators that TM-30-15
uses as reference source). Xicato Vibrancy V95 (V930
in the Rf-Rg chart) combines both high fidelity with an
increase in gamut beyond 100.
Even though the calculated Rg values between Xicato
Standard Series and Xicato Artist Series are similar,
the lit effect between the two is very different, as is
also illustrated in the Color Vector Graphics and Color
Distortion Graphics which are distinctly different for
both series.
Hue Shift
Vectors pointing along the circumference of the
diagram in the Color Vector Graphic indicate hue shift.
For example, orange can be represented by a test
source as yellow-orange or green as yellow-green. As
can be seen from all Xicato sources, the vectors point
inward or outward, but not along the circumference of
the diagram. Consequently it can be concluded that
hue shift is minimal for all Xicato sources.
