Also, let me suggest you not automatically exclude the vendor supplying
scans without profiles. If their work is good otherwise it will be
consistent, and as such you could tag it when you get it and use ColorSync
from then on. Once you have assigned a profile and your monitor is properly
calibrated/PS set correctly, you should have a very good idea of what you
have. Try assigning the profile for your normal workspace (Adobe RGB?) and
see what you get. I have found little visual difference on the monitor
between sRGB and Adobe RGB. If you were using PhotoCD, you are buying batch
scans, and you are not getting random proofs the work probably isn't so
critical that you would reject a scan for any but the most gross problem
(?) so I don't see why this would not work.
This is exactly what I had in mind. We've utilized a ton of Photo CD
scans in this manner over the past 5 years. But, it turns out the
sample scans done this way by the vendor who owns the Jazz (very
little adjustment at the scanner interface) require as much, if not
more, Photoshop time to beat them into shape for output as do Photo
CD scans.
At any rate, I convinced my department that perhaps the best
solution is to get our own high production scanner. We're looking at
the Creo IQSmart3 and perhaps the Fuji FineScan 5000.
Anyone had experience batch scanning mounted 35mm transparencies with
either of these two "high end" flatbeds?
Thanks to everyone who responded to my original post. I learned a
lot. Perhaps we ColorSynchers can mount a sRGB eradication campaign.
