Varieties of the colorred may differ inhue,chroma (also called saturation, intensity, or colorfulness),lightness (or value, tone, orbrightness), or in two or three of these qualities. Variations in value are also calledtints and shades, a tint being a red or other hue mixed with white, a shade being mixed with black. A large selection of these various colors are shown below.

Red (RGB),RGB red, orelectric red^{[citation needed]} (as opposed topigment red, shown below) is the brightest possible red that can be reproduced on acomputer monitor. This color is an approximation of an orangish redspectral color. It is one of the threeprimary colors of light in theRGB color model, along withgreen andblue. The three additive primaries in the RGB color system are the three colors of light chosen such as to provide the maximumgamut of colors that are capable of being represented on a computer or television set, at a reasonable expense ofpower. Portable devices such as mobile phones might have an even narrower gamut due to thispurity–power tradeoff and their "red" may be less colorful and more orangish than the standard red ofsRGB.

This color is also the color calledred in theX11 web colors, which were originally formulated in 1987. It is also calledcolor wheel red. It is at precisely zero (360) degrees on theHSV color wheel, also known as the RGB color wheel (Image of RGB color wheel). Itscomplementary color iscyan.

Pigment red is the color red that is achieved by mixing process (printer's)magenta and process (printer's)yellow in equal proportions. This is the color red that is shown in the diagram located at the bottom of the following website offering tintbooks forCMYK printing:Tintbooks - Get Accurate CMYK Color Results For Your Printing Projects.

The purpose of the CMYK color system is to provide the maximum possible gamut of colors capable of being reproduced in printing.

Psychedelic art made people used to brighter colors of red, andpigment colors or colored pencils called "true red" are produced by mixing pigment red with a tiny amount ofwhite. The result approximates (with much less brightness than is possible on a computer screen) the electric red shown above.

TheMunsell color system is acolor space that specifiescolors based on three color dimensions:hue, value (lightness), andchroma (colorfulness), spaced uniformly (in terms ofhuman perception) in three dimensions in the Munsellcolor solid. In order for all the colors to be spaced uniformly, it was found necessary to use a color wheel with five, non-arbitrary, equally spaced primary colors: red, yellow, green, blue, and purple.

The color of the sample is the mostchromatic (colorful) red in the sRGB gamut that falls in the hue of 5R (primary red) in the Munsell color space.

Venetian red is a light and warm (somewhat unsaturated) pigment that is a darker shade of red. The composition of Venetian red changed over time. Originally it consisted of natural ferric oxide (Fe2O3, partially hydrated) obtained from the red hematite. Modern versions are frequently made with synthetic red iron oxide produced via calcination of green vitriol mixed with white chalk. The pigment contains up to 50% of the ferric oxide.

Historically, Venetian red was a red earth color often used inItalian Renaissance paintings.
