1. A color tuned volume holographic optical element, for use with a light source having spectral power peaks at a first color, a second color, and a third color, comprising:

  • a photohardened holographic recording film element comprising a first plurality of pixel volumes, a second plurality of pixel volumes, and a third plurality of pixel volumes;

    each one of the first pixel volumes including a color tuned volume holographic mirror that passes light with a first color wavelength band and reflects light with a second color wavelength band, a third color wavelength band and a fourth color wavelength band and passes all other color wavelength bands;

    each one of the second pixel volumes including a non-color tuned volume holographic mirror that passes light with the second color wavelength band and reflects light with the first color wavelength band, the third color wavelength band and a fifth color wavelength band and passes all other color wavelength bands;

    each one of the third pixel volumes including a color tuned volume holographic mirror that passes light with the third color wavelength band and reflects light with the first color wavelength band, the second color wavelength band, and a sixth color wavelength band and passes all other color wavelength bands.
