Reply to comment by iam666 in When measuring the wavelength of EM radiation... what's actually being measured? by Grand-Tension8668
You might be right. I interpreted it as "when you measure a photon's wavelength, what is actually being measured?" Typically it is the energy of the photon that is being measured. Then the wavelength is calculated. I may have been too literal.
