I did exactly as you described. And I think it is the only way. But scan still looks darker in gradation. So shadows and halftones looks darker, highlights something near the slide. I think if I change the gamma of saved raw scan everything
will look just fine. Actually I don't understand why is this happening. Any Ideas?
Are there any better space than TIFFRGB to save raw RGB scan from Linocolor? I think it is not quite big enough for such scans. Am I right?
BTW, I compared Profile Maker's and ColorBlind's profiles and got strange result in shadows. ColorBlind's profile gives me more details in shadows than PM's one. But PM got better contrast. All profiles were built from the same raw scan. Does
anybody know anything about it?
