Unfortunately, most of us can't throw every profiling package under the sun
at their cameras (I'd like to throw other things at them from time to
time!). I can see as to how a consultant would be valuable in this regard,
as most of the good ones do have everything.
Gauging from the responses I've gotten from my question (again, thank you
to everyone who responded with good information...and thank you Andrew),
I'm most likely going to abandon color managing the front end (capture) for
the time being. I'll keep plugging at it as time allows, maybe
experimenting with custom capture targets and so forth. There just seem to
be too many variables to do it properly, and certainly a good amount of
voodoo involved (IMHO).
