Re: color profiles
>From what I learned there are two display devices normal (sRGB) and wide gamut. My monitor is a wide gamut device. If you load the (Dell) profile for the device Windows is wide gamut enabled. The same goes for loading the AdobeRGB profile. Once I load a wide gamut profile the Chrome browser is displaying two versions of a sRGB jpg. Apparently you need a colorimeter to calibrate sRGB and a spectrophotometer to calibrate wide gamut. I don't understand the difference (yet). I set everything to sRGB and disabled wide gamut. Now I see two identical renderings in Chrome and identical renderings across LR, all other browser and ipad/iphone. Toine On 9 March 2013 23:52, Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote: > Displays are devices.

Re: OT - Broken Ankle Update (good news)
Thanks to everyone for the thoughts and wishes. My current position is as a customer service rep (nice words for "ordertaker") and troubleshooter. Because of the "troubleshooter" part it is a new position. I think I am well-suited for it due to my many years as a courier; basically I will be dealing with problem pick ups and deliveries and resolving them with our clients. Luckily I live about ten miles or more from the office. Once the casts are off I will by cyclo-commuting so I certainly will still be biking. The commute by transit is a bear - I will shave of close to an hour by biking. Of course the nice thing is that I can still transit on bad weather days. After one week at the new position it looks like it could be fun and interesting.

Adorama (unlike B&H) did accept my PayPal. At USD 470 per module, it was pretty easy to decide to buy Ricoh GXR A12-28 module, which is very similar to my 50mm module, except that it has 18.3/f2.5 lens that I would say is one heck of direct competitor for newly announced Nikon camera, if just some few hundred bucks cheaper. Galia got her own Ricoh GXR camera body and now she can shoot with either of my modules. Since I had to play with 28mm one, she took 50mm...

A display calibration tool (hardware and software from Xrite or Colorvision, or similar) would do the right thing presuming it is compatible with your display. I suspect that "wide gamut" means 16bit quantization for the display device rather than 8bit. I've seen this debate on other forums. IMO, this kind of wide gamut display configuration only makes sense to work with if you were also working with a high-end printer that could also image 16bit data quantization on output, and that was your intent. It doesn't make sense to work on a wide gamut configured display if the output target is other displays, 99% of which are going to be configured as 8bit quantization devices. If you want to be sure to have the right hardware to calibrate and profile your display for wide gamut setup, be sure to research on the hardware/software providers' websites and info pages so that you are certain to get compatible hardware and software for the task. But I think it is mostly a waste of time. The sRGB profile you've applied isn't the best one to have for the display, but if it's doing the job satisfactorily for your needs, life is good. -- Godfrey godfreydigiorgi.posterous.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Try Real World Color Management by Bruce Fraser, et. al. (ISBN 978-0321267221) That said, here's some information: A colorimeter measures only red, green, and blue colors of light (and calculates color from the ratios), while a spectrophotometer can measure the intensity of any wavelength of visible light. Either one can be used for monitor profiling and the advantages/disadvantages of each aren't relevant to your application: Either should work for you. A colorimeter will be more affordable. It sounds as if your monitor can be set to perform as either an sRGB device or wide-gamut device. Whichever way you set it, you can use either the manufacturer's supplied profiles or generate your own (with software and a colorimeter). If you're using a fully color managed workflow it shouldn't matter which you choose: when you soft-proof you should be shown a fairly good representation of what your output device is going to produce. If you're converting images to sRGB for the web (and you should be) then they should render properly no matter whether your monitor is set to sRGB or wide gamut as long as you have the appropriate profile loaded. Perhaps earlier you had your monitor set to wide gamut but had the wide gamut profile loaded (or vice-versa)? -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

I've only seen 'wide gamut' specs for displays which support greater than 8bit per component channels, usually 12 or 16 bit. And I maintain that using device neutral color profiles for a display device (like sRGB and Adobe RGB) isn't the right thing to do. Use a color profile which models a particular hardware device at a specific calibration; it's the only correct way to configure a display for color managed work. -- Godfrey godfreydigiorgi.posterous.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

GESO: Caribbean, Chapter 2 (St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands)
Thanks Bob, Dan, Bob, Frank et al for checking out my San Juan photos. Bob W - I think a few weeks island hopping in the Caribbean would be a great trip. Problem is, any cruises stop only briefly in any one port, usually 0800-1730, and regular transportation among islands is spotty and expensive, making an independent itinerary somewhat difficult. But a few days on each of 3 or 4 islands would be a decent compromise. Or you charter a small sailboat (with crew as needed) . . . As promised, here is the second installment from our trip. After spending 2 1/2 days in San Juan Puerto Rico, we boarded our cruise ship Sunday afternoon. Overnight we slooowly proceeded next door to St. Thomas. Meg and I booked a "scenic overview" tour which lasted through the morning, then wandered the streets of Charlotte Amalia.

Profiling the actual display is the best option for sure but is not practically available to everyone.The next best option would be to use a monitor specific pre-defined display profile as the device profile and lastly simply setting the display to a known standard device profile such as sRGB and just running with that. Personally I've never had a great deal of success with factory monitor profiles, I would assume that the success depends largely on the accuracy and consistency of factory monitor adjustment. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

If you're going to do any professional work, even weddings or baby pics, calibration is absolutely essential. Hell, if you want to make nice prints for your mom, calibration is essential. Or you could just go the hit an miss method and burn through a dozen sheets of paper for every print.

Re: A Lone Tree. (Cliché alert!)
Daniel, Bruce, Frank, Ann and Stan, Thank you all very much for your comments. I am really pleased that you liked the photograph. I had to stop the car and go out to take that one. Became a bit wet as well... Felt happier, anyway :) Bulent - http://patoloji.gen.tr http://www.flickr.com/photos/bc_the_path/ http://photo.net/photodb/user?user_id=2226822 http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/artists/bulentcelasun 2013/3/11 Stan Halpin : > A very nice lone tree.
