So here I am all geared up and excited with my new Canon Eos 1 DS Mark II, my new G5 dual processor, my eizo CG21, my books on camera raw and color management.
Studied a lot and done everything just by the books, shot all my new editorial in raw, converted it to prophoto 16 bit,
done a lot of retouching and manipulation on my calibrated Eizo, looked carefully at all my histograms and pushed my colors to the limits....and loved them...
but here are my worries...
If I do some quick conversions to CMYK trying different set up everything becomes very dull of course
(I am aware of the differences between the two gamuts, etc and therefore not surprised)...
but the point is:
what do you guys suggest or how do you manage your workflow at this point:
trust the prepress to do a correct conversion and to reach the closest possible gamut to my RGB image (they work in 8 bit mode)
or convert myself to CMYK into 16 bits and then color correct the image in CMYK mode and let myself have control over this process, with all its headaches and possibilities?
thanks
carlo
