VFB Pixel Information Corrected?

[biochemical_animations]

I've always been confused with the difference between the corrected values (red text) and the values above (white text)...are the white text non-corrected? What does it mean when it says corrected values. Can someone please explain. TIA

Like for example, sometimes when I'm setting up a light to match a reference photo, I'm adjusting the light brightness to match a certain value in the reference photo...but do I look at the corrected (red) or white values to compare?

it's a before/after sRGB curve burned ...so, it's depends which is your workflow; matching a real photo I would say it should be the corrected one
