viewing conditions (In French conditions d’observation) all conditions that influence the creation of a color stimulus when viewing an object or a light phenomenon; standardized conditions for visual evaluations in media production: adjacent positioning of sample-reference, neutral gray environment with diffusing surface, evenly distributed illuminance, standard D50 illuminant and a viewing distance adapted to the 2° field of vision; the inclination of the desk level (difference between illumination and observation angle) depends on the task; exclusion (0°/45°) or inclusion (same angle) of the gloss.
