5 Adjust the Black Point and White Point values until the red lines on the
histogram encompass the majority of the graph, and the preview image
is satisfactory.
TIP For the Internal Storage option, use the default choice of 16 bit/chan
Linear (48bpp) unless you have a specific reason for doing otherwise.
6 When you have finished adjusting values, note the Linear White Point
value, and click OK to accept the settings.
7 In the Material Editor, expand the Output rollout. Set the RGB Level to
the same value as the Linear White Point value on the HDRI Load Settings
dialog.
The result is a map with a wide range of deep blacks and very white
highlights. If such an image is used as both a background in the rendering
and a reflection map on an object, the object will appear to be extremely
shiny and reflective.

and the method for storing the data.
