Hi Tom.
I have tried profiling my LS4000 and LS8000 but there is no place to
load a custom profile in Nikon Scan. I even tried playing a shell
game with Nikon Scan by trying to find the manufacturer profile in
it's folder structure and switching profiles with my own. I gave up.
The thing is, I have found it unnecessary to profile anyway. When I
open the images in Photoshop they always match the way they appear in
Nikon Scan. Set up your preferences with Nikon Color Management
System checked on, load your custom monitor profile, and pick your
RGB space. I use Wide Gamut because I like the way it encompasses my
Epson 1280 and ColorLife paper. I do most of my edits in Nikon Scan
to 14 bit and fine tune in Photoshop 16 bit. I can't find any image
degradation no matter how hard I look. That's what's cool about 14
bit!
Gary
