Pitch lighting mimimum average lux/uniformity	Uniformity is the factor applied to an average illuminant level to arrive at the minimum permitted illumination, ie 500 lux x 0.6 = 300 lux minimum. For TV lighting, due to the fact that cameras do not react as quickly as the human eye, alternative factors are applied from measured maximum levels for both horizontal and vertical illumination
