Here is the scale that denotes the proper designation for the coin, based on reflectivity:

 

* Semi-Prooflike (SPL) - 1 to 2 inches, devices must be frosted

* Prooflike (PL) - 2 to 4 inches of reflectivity

* Deep Mirror Prooflike (DMPL) - More than 4 inches

* Ultra Prooflike (UPL) - At least 8 inches

Pretty sure ULTRA CAMEO and DEEP CAMEO on moderns requires 12 inches...

 

I think that has more to do with the contrast than the depth of the reflectivity.
