Evidence claims:
- [upstream_claim] Manual states AgX is a tone mapping transform that improves on Filmic for more photorealistic results, offers 16.5 stops of dynamic range and desaturates highly exposed colours; Filmic is deprecated and superseded by AgX. · locator: Displays and Views, view transform list · source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/render/color_management/displays_views.html
- [upstream_claim] Manual lists Khronos PBR Neutral as a tone mapping transform for PBR colour accuracy in product photography, and an entry describing version 2.0 of the ACES view transform with less aggressive tone scale and improved gamut mapping. · locator: Displays and Views, view transform list · source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/render/color_management/displays_views.html
- [upstream_claim] Page says display colour space depends on the target display and its capabilities (sRGB, digital cinema, HD TV, wide gamut or HDR displays), and colours must be fitted to the gamut of the device. · locator: Displays and Views, intro · source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/render/color_management/displays_views.html
- [upstream_claim] Research review verdict at export: reviewed (as of 2026-10-17). Recorded by the research pipeline, not a hub review outcome; evidence.review stays unreviewed until an independent reviewer records one.
