Convert float 32 .tif image to int8 .jpg

Python
1

I am using this code: image2 = cv2.normalize(image, None, 0, 255, cv2.NORM_MINMAX, cv2.CV_8U) in order to transform a .tif 32-bit float integer to 8-bit int .jpeg. The problem is that it destroys the brightness… How can I have the same brightness to .jpg output as the original .tif? I tried 1023 instead of 511, it fixes, but I don’t know if this is a mainstream solution, and If I face problems in the future…

do you have linear data or gamma-mapped?

do you know the min and max values of your data? do these values even matter? does your data have a “nominal” range of values?

input data and code please. show us what you see. we see nothing here.

You don’t read them. There is no function to find them out You need to know them or find them out about the source of your data.
