Support for the new chart is limited to Kodak's Input Profile Builder,
ProfileMaker
Pro and another package from Praxisoft which I have had no experience with.
For that model camera, also use Quantum Mechanic Pro and try ProPhotoRGB as
an
editing space. You will need a good camera profile to make this colourspace
come to life but it is worth the perseverance. Without the camera profile
imported
images can look overly red.
You will see a great improvement to the historically bad blue channel.
