correct setting is surface brightness ON.
very dark response, I think right; when you take a shot in real life, your camera increases shutter time.
If you had an analog camera, to shot a room with a 60watt light bulb, you should have about 800 ISO and sutther speed about 1/30s or 1/60s with openings f/5.6.
In Octane f * is for depth of field, but not for brightness; so to get a right shot you need to increase exposure.

To get the right light in the octane, we need Wats and Efficiency, the term luminous efficiency can be confused with the term, "luminous efficacy (lm/W)".
1 Is this first statement correct?Using the example of the projector which is 430w and has an efficiency of 7.3%, which equates to an efficiency of 0.073 in Octane,
2. Do I always have to put two zeros in front of the percentage I find in some tables? Or do you have a specific calculation?If we only have the value of Lumen, (
3. in the original Topic when bepeg4d refers to Lumen it actually meant lm/W right?) we use the calculation lm = W × (lm/W) and we use 0.001464 in the Efficiency float value, which is the result of 1/683.
As most of the time the manufacturer provides Lumen, it is very basic, just use the Lumen Value in Power and 0.001464 in Efficiency.
4. Do you have any conversion to find the % having the values of W and lm/W?
