So if Mark Buckner were to simply "white balance" then his Nikon D1x color
will simply fall into place through ACR? Are you saying that it will surely
get the colors right that are right through the camera? Sounds reasonable.
What about the ones that arent seen right? Is this where photographic
memory color gets used?

I don9t think Mark B. is even beginning to suggest that all colors will be
nailed through a profile but I would wager most would be. In the CMS world
I'd say that was a positive thing, wouldn9t you?
I think we can leave camera metamerism to the side here since that happened
with that clear acetate stuff as well. Stick to the technology comparisons.

Very curious, I suggest that you don9t have to do it for every shot at all.
That9s why you can save custom balances (like daylight). As for calling it
a luxury, nope. Balance is important period. As for practical..........Im
sure Mike Fizer, Canon Pro, doesn9t hang from a trapeze while shooting a
Cessna at 10,000 ft.
All the best...............
