1. An image capture device comprising:
- a light-sensing array operable to detect light;
a mapping unit operatively coupled to the light-sensing array and configured to represent intensities of light sensed by elements of the light-sensing array as digital image values according to a response function; and
an exposure compensation circuitry operatively coupled to the mapping unit and configured to control the mapping unit such that a fixed point in the mid-range of the response function is made to correspond to a midpoint of the output image values,the response function being based at least in part on a functional model of;

Abstract
Image data may be color graded, distributed and viewed on target displays. Mappings that preserve mid-range points and mid-range contrast may be applied to view the image data for color grading and to prepare the image data for display on a target display. The image data may be expanded to exploit the dynamic range of the target display without affecting mid-tone values.
