Over the last year or so I've been focusing on learning more and more
about working on the video side of the industry (after 20 years as a
high end retoucher) and have noticed their approach to color
management is markedly different than the stills/print side I've
worked in for so many years.
It seems on the video side they rely much more on LUTs instead of ICC
profiles and argue that their approach delivers a consistency and
accuracy un-achievable through the ICC approach. Here are a couple of
links to software products that seem to be adopting this approach:
http://studio.spectracal.com/calmanstudio.html
http://www.lightillusion.com/lightspace.html
In the case of Lightillusion's Lightspace product I had a brief
exchange with the head guy on their forums in which he insisted their
approach was vastly superior to the ICC approach I am more familiar
with, yet he failed to offer any specifics that really explained why
to me.
Is anyone else familiar with the different approaches to color
management? And if so could you help clear up the fog for me? (Do they
really have something there, or are they just blowing smoke?)
Thanks!
Dennis Dunbar
