Another issue which is on the agenda of the June meeting in Tokyo is
that of camera Raw file color management. Cameras originate the images
used in printing and on the web. There are now millions of digital SLR
cameras out in the hands of consumers, all professional photography is
done with them, and the experience is definitely NTSC - never twice
the same color. Use a different camera even sometimes from the same
model, or change the lighting, change the Raw converter, change
anything at all and you'll never get a
picture of the same subject that looks the same.
The technical issues here are not the problem - it's the politics by
which color has now become a hostage to lock-in rather than becoming
an interoperable quantity. If any of those who read this are involved
in digital photography and wish to make the color of Raw more
interoperable, they should definitely lobby for the photo industry to
start cooperating here.
