hi there. i am new to this list and am hoping to get a better understanding
of colorsync. i work in the digital department of a stock phoptography
agency and i do a lot of scanning, as well as a lot of color correction
on images that are submitted to us digitally.I'm using a G4 to view and
deal with all the images, and a Nikon LS2000 scanner hooked up to an older
mac clone for the scanning. The scans get immediately saved to the server
and then i view and edit them on the G4. Here is my question....and i
know it is the question we are all dying for a real answer to: how do
i know what i am looking at is right. I have a feeling that i am pretty
close, but without a specific method of testing, how do i know?
i am also having some problems (well, i don't know if it a problem b/c
there is know way to really know what's right) as far as my photoshop
settings. I have gone back to using the default monitor profile in
ColorSync's
native calibration control panel. My Photoshop 5.5 RGB setting is adobe
rgb (1998). According to adobe, i should have "compensate for monitor"
checked. Whe i was using a custom monitor profile, checking this box
made my images look yellow. thans why i changed back to the default profile.
If a nyone can offer some advice about how to handle monitor
calibration/photo
shop color settings i wouls be greatful
thanx
