Hi folks.
Have mercy on me as this is the first time I am posting to this list.
I think the subject may be of some use to other digital photographers.
I have been using a PhaseOne Lightphase camera back for the
past two years. The most frustrating thing has been trying to get the
darn thing profiled properly. I started with a spectrophotometer,
Matchbox profiler and a Gretag Macbeth card. The results were better
than not profiling, thats about it. Then I got Profile City Dcam last
year. This Photoshop plug-in was a little better. But the profiles
were not very smooth still. Dcam also seemed to make my
profiles too dark, I always had to go back into Matchbox edit and
tweak the devil out of the profile to lighten it up and bring the
blues back into line. And on top of that, I found I still needed
several different profiles made up, one for skin tones, one for
products, etc.
Two weeks ago I got my hands on a copy of ColorEyes by Intergrated
Color Corporation. I am blown away at the profile it made for me. Out
of the box it is the finest profile I have ever seen. It also comes
with a 25 page manual that makes it very clear how to setup and light
the target properly. Good instructions on profiling has been severely
lacking with all the other packages and plug-ins I have tried. A
revolution really in profiling digital backs. It was so easy, and here
I have been pulling whats left of my hair out tweaking crappy profiles
in Matchbox. It's about time someone came out with a really great
product that makes Digital camera profiling easy. I think these chaps
have done it!
Cheers,
-Nick
