A method of measuring light emission of a display panel and a method of compensating light emission of a display panel are disclosed. In one aspect the method of measuring light emission includes setting a location of a camera such that a imaging range area of the camera includes a first divided region among a plurality of divided regions, wherein the display panel is larger than the imaging range area of the camera and includes the divided regions, and wherein each of the divided regions is smaller than the imaging range area; first displaying a recognition pattern image on the first divided region. The method also includes shooting the first divided region by the camera so as to generate a recognition pattern shot; second displaying a single-color image on the first divided region.
