Abstract

A method is described for converting an input image into an output image, the output image including an output luminance component made of elements. The method includes: obtaining an input luminance component from the input image; determining the output luminance component, the respective ranges of the output luminance component element values and input luminance component element values being of different range extension, the determining step including: —determining a first intermediate luminance component from the input luminance component and an exponent, —obtaining a mapping profile allowing for mapping a luminance component based on the input luminance component into the output luminance component, —determining a second intermediate luminance component from the input luminance component and the obtained mapping profile, —determining the output luminance component from the first and second intermediate luminance components; and converting the input image into the output image.
