Calibrating Digital Cameras
How to keep up… I’ve been working with Photoshop since v3.0, about 1995. Photoshop keeps changing and I feel like I just barely keep up. I’m probably, actually doing better than that, it just feels that way. The feature set does keep growing an my last Photoshop purchase was CS. CS3 is now the current version and I’m very much looking forward to switching over to it. )
With that in mind I’ve been reading: Adobe Photoshop CS3 for Photographers. For those of you who are photographers the author, Martin Evening, suggests running the script found here to calibrate your camera.
Requires a GretagMacbeth color checker. (Another item I’ve had for years.)
This only applies to those of us shooting RAW files.
Takes a while to run the script. 45 minutes on my Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro.
The resulting numbers go into the Camera Calibration tab of Adobe Camera Raw.
Enjoy!
