Yes miss Kodak is really sick. She's passed through the chemical tanks too
often. I'm sorry Kodak but for an instrument of measure and a visual on skin
tones , well, you Kodak people are blind.
She starts off ugly and after profiling she gets worse and worse. I can't
remember exactly but the mid values are something like 50c 75m 60y 25k with
an offset profile.
So no worries mate, just don't look at her too long, as it could be
dangerous for your perception of perception of real women. On top there is
the problem of white point adaptation and you'd need to be quick to see that
indeed these skin tones are slightly different than on normal people<sic>.
