I’ve been trying to understand the concept of the "18% gray" card which is used as a benchmark in film photography and enlarging. What makes it 18%? It’s certainly not 82% black; it seems very close to middle gray (50% K), at least on my poorly calibrated monitor. Is it appropriate to use an 18% gray card as the midpoint/exposure point for digital photos? I’m not getting this one…
