Based on my personal practical experience, I'm in agreement with you Marco and of course Don H as well.

----- Original Message ----- From: "Marco Ugolini"

Just as a long-time user with my share of practical experience built over
the years -- and not as a scientist -- Relative Colorimetric *without* BPC
does not make practical sense to me in the overwhelming majority of
instances.


If I am converting an image from an RGB space (AdobeRGB or ProPhotoRGB) and
I notice some visible clipping, then I may resort to the Perceptual intent.
Otherwise my preferred intent is RelCol *with* BPC. I have not encountered
any instances in which it made sense, esthetically or otherwise, to blunt
the dynamic range of the converted image by generating blacks and shadows
that look too light, as they are likely to appear without BPC.


The examples that Don Hutcheson mentions in his message are very legitimate
and reasonable, but they occur very rarely, for many users possibly never.
