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,

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?
