I believe that in addition to Capture One, Raw Developer, the Leaf
Software, Canon's DPP, Dave Coffin's dcraw and the Sinar software
are all based on ICC profiled workflows.
But Leaf software, Canon software and Sinar software are only
available for the respective camera models, aren't they? For obvious
reasons, I could only include generic software in my testing. (Using a
Canon camera, I could test DPP - see below.)
DPP hides the profiles under the hood, using generic ones.
It's true that the DPP.framework includes many internally used ICC
profiles, but I have not found a way in DPP to specify individually
built profiles instead.
dcraw is a command line program, so it's outside of Mac Life's scope.
There is a GUI version (dcRAW-X), but the last build is from January
2005, so it seems to be pretty much dead.
Raw Developer -which is the product of a one-man-shop seems to be
the best converter out there for single images.
You are correct that I overlooked this one, and it seems to be a
glaring omission. :-( I will try to get a test license and see how it
performs. Thanks for pointing this out!
The consistent refusal of the Photoshop team to accept icc-
conformant camera profiles is a crying shame.
Indeed, and the same is true for Apple's Aperture. Strangely, the
Aperture manual (at least the German one) talks about custom built ICC
profiles, saying users should use the best equipment they could afford
to build ICC camera profiles, but then says nothing about how these
could be incorporated into an Aperture workflow (they can't,
actually). Weird.
