The LROC NACs have a wide dynamic range; they can record up to 3600 grey levels. Compare that number to the measly 256 (8-bit) grey levels that a typical computer monitor can display.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: The LROC NACs have a wide dynamic range; they can record up to 3600 grey levels. Compare that number to the measly 256 (8-bit) grey levels that a typical computer monitor can display. Thus, compromises must be made when stretching an image for web release. On the left, NAC reflectance values of 0.105 to 0.24 were compressed into the 8-bit range of 0 to 255. This stretch resulted in the crater interior and near-rim deposits being saturated (no detail). Preserving detail in the brightest areas required a stretch from 0.14 to 0.30. But now the background is lost in a sea of black! M1249431011LR [NASA/GSFC/Arizona State University.]
