ic. so to repeat back to you so i am sure i got it.....

it's okay to check "gammma correction" when rendering out to openEXR or HDR, becuase the spec for those files will not export gamma correction. Is that correct?

Now.....could you say this :

"in order to get correct linear data, the input textures need to be converted to a linear color space too. That conversion is what you get when you enable "gamma correction" in the render settings."

another way? I don't know what linear color space is. In other words, tell me why I should have gamma correction checked if it does not impact my openEXR export. Thanks
