About the units
What is a nit (cd/m²)?
One candela per square metre — the standard unit of display brightness. A phone in sunlight hits 1,000+ nits; a typical laptop is 250–400; an HDR TV can reach 1,500 or more.
What is a foot-lambert?
A US photometric unit for the luminance of a perfectly diffusing surface, about 3.426 nits. Still quoted for cinema and projector-screen brightness (SMPTE recommends ~14 fL).
