ImageRead
This node loads images from disk, using the native resolution and the frame range for the sequence. It converts all
imported sequences to Katana's linear colorspace automatically, but there are options to control this. Note that
Katana's image processing operations are written assuming they are working on linear images, so be careful if you
change the default input colorspace conversion. All of Katana's image processing is implemented in floating point, so
files are converted to float at input.

file none The image sequence to load.
image
rawData disabled When enabled, Katana skips the automatic
colorspace conversion. Note that Katana is
inherently a floating-point system. Thus, if
integer data is loaded (at any bit-depth), the
pixels are mapped to the range of [0, 1].
isProxy disabled When enabled, Katana assumes the loaded image
sequence is a proxy rather than a full-resolution
image. This is preferable to manually resizing the
image, as it is more efficient when proxy-
rendering is enabled.
