I've taken the liberty of cross-posting this message from Steven Pont
on the Nikon D1scussion listserv to this listserv - as I know that this
is where the color management experts hang out. I'll direct Steven to
this list as well. Any input from members of this list, especially
Nikon DSLR users, would be tremendously welcomed by Nikon Capture users
in general, and the Nikon Capture development team in particular.
Thanks,
--Rich Wagner

Camera profiles

I have been thinking about this issue for quite some time, but I'm

still

not sure exactly what to do about it. There is one camp that wants to

output a linear file (basically a CCD-to-RGB conversion with no other

processing) for the purpose of creating a camera profile. There is

another

camp that wants to output a "more processed" file, but still without

any

color management, also for the purpose of creating a camera profile.

There

is a third camp that wants to tell Capture what profile to use when

converting from the camera's color space. I'm sure there is some

overlap

in these three camps, but it's been a while since I've been to camp...

It's Friday, my brain is working a little slowly, and I'm only half-way

through my copy of "Real World Color Management", so I need a little
>
help. Capture already gives you the ability to assign your own profile

as

the working color space. This will also be used when saving. What else
>
is

needed?

I know that Ethan has said in the past that his camera profiles work

well

in all different lighting conditions, but are there any other
>
variables (or
>
workflows) that I need to be aware of?
