I don't know how many. I've worked with 3 in the last few months about this, and that's
nearly half the photographers I've helped in that time. One of the three bought EyeOne
Photo, and is profiling his various papers himself now, and the other two bought custom
profiles for their desktop 2200's. Two are investigating the appropriateness of buying
Epson 7600/9600's.
In wedding and portrait forums, I keep hearing of folks looking into the wide format
printers, most of whom need some form of RIP if those printers are to increase rather
than decrease costs.
It's a very large potential market. That it was largely created by the way most existing
labs' converted from film to digital: instead of offering the same color
correction/management services they did for film, they shifted that back aspect to the
digital photographers--opening the door for colormanaged photographers to do their own
printing, or to use labs with "lower" quality while getting the same actual quality is
now moot: that market was created, and won't go away even though color correction is now
being offered by many of those labs.
