A viral photo posted by NFL player Prince Amukamara highlights a well-documented problem with photography: cameras have historically been particularly bad at correctly metering for darker skin tones. In this case, Amukamara nearly completely disappears from a group photo.

 

The Cameras’ Bias

The discussion surrounding photography and how photos render dark skin tones is not a new one. The issue with how even film exposes for darker skin has been investigated in the past. In short, film stocks were designed with light skin as the ideal skin standard, and therefore sometimes it had problems rendering for darker skin. That problem continues to persist even with digital sensors.

The issue is particularly prevalent when dark skin is exposed next to light skin, as cameras often choose to meter for the highlights rather than the shadows or some area of middle ground. A photo shared by NFL cornerback Prince Amukamara is a rather extreme example of this. Below, Amukamara is shown between current and former Green Bay Packers quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers and Brett Farve. Due to the camera’s exposure, Amukamara blends in with the underexposed background of the scene and is barely visible.

 

 

 

 

It is possible that whatever camera captured this photo did not recognize a significant difference between the darkness of the background and Amukamara’s skin, resulting in his extreme underexposure. Arguably, this scene would be a challenge even for larger sensors with greater dynamic range. Smartphones and their small sensors have a difficult time metering both highlights and shadows, and it is possible that even if the phone that took this photo metered its flash better, it would be a challenge to expose for Amukamara without overexposing both Rodgers and Farve.

Google’s official Twitter account responded to the tweet, which started another branch of conversation.

 

 

 

 

While this might at first glance appear to be a bad time for a company to interject, it is actually very much on-brand for what Google has been doing with its Real Tone technology.

Google Real Tone

Google has been putting significant development effort into what it calls a more racially inclusive camera for some time. Initially shown in May of 2021, Google argued that people tend to think that cameras are objective, but the truth of the matter is that a lot of decisions — made by people — go into making photography tools. As a result, Google says that historically those decisions have not been made while taking people of color into account.
