1. Adobe's "Canon Faithful" emulation profile matches the original
profile within a small delta E in my 7 test lighting scenarios (not
a bad result at all ...)
2. Adobe's "Standard beta" profile fares worse metrologically than
the "Canon Faithful" emulation profile.
3. The (original) Canon "Faithful" profile is the metrologically
best profile of all profiles Canon delivers for my test camera.
4. Custom profiles built with ProfileMaker, Digital ColorChecker SG
and Capture One PRO deliver better metrological results than the
Canon "Faithful" profile (again, in *every single* of my 7 test
lighting scenarios).
5. Profiles built with the DNG Profile Editor and the ColorChecker
24 deliver results similar to that of Adobe's "Standard beta" profile.
Here in the Uk a bunch of us work closely with Adobe employees
regularly on various committees and I have generally found these
individuals to be of a reasonably balanced nature :-) , and I also
work with many other sectors on the same committees who have similar
qualities but wildly different viewpoints . As a rule we usually
manage to bash out working compromises on issues based on research
and evaluation of each others premises. And we manage to be civil
enough to enjoy a pint or two after the meetings. We work on the
basis that it's all for the common good.
I thought that this was the same reasoning behind this list , but it
seems to have taken on a different role with this thread. Shouldn't
we try to be working with each other rather than ranting and sniping
against each other ?
With this in mind, and with all parties leaving aside accusations of
bias , corporate loyalty, corporate fear ,conspiracy theories ,
personal views on personality , SHOUTING , profile editing ( much
like spinning plates and not for the faint hearted when it comes to
striving for accuracy and not looks ) , views on "looks " as opposed
to accuracy etc etc ...has anybody disproved , or attempting to
disprove scientifically Uli's observations above ? Just establishing
that might move us on.

Bob Marchant.
