it is a mess already :), there is
_intensity
_intensity_ir
_intensity_both
_intensity_uv
_intensity_red
_intensity_green
_intensity_blue
_intensity_clear
I think that ir, uv, red, green, blue are filters for particular ranges
of the spectrum
_intensity_clear might be unfiltered and _intensity might relate to the
human eye photopic curve, I think the proposed white might be the same as
clear?
'both' means ir + _intensity (not clearly specified)
