Default Re: M8 vs DMR, very different colors in Capture One

An even weirder request: re-process the file using the IMACON profile for the DMR. Ok, I know this will be messed in the shadows, since it won't have CO's special bit mojo for gamma, but try it anyway (if you had FlexColor installed for the DMR, it will be there--gotta love the way C1 lets you experiment).

I mention this because I did this to a couple of the "bootleg" M8 files and was quite surprised by how much better Caucasian skin tones, especially, looked. No more magenta.

(FWIW, I'm not prone to doing suff like this, but I am prone to accidents. I was changing the output profile and I actually applied the Hassy input profile by accident, then, why not? the DMR default. An immediate--and better--difference in red / yellows, and greens!! They don't have that "yellowy" look CO often creates)

I'd love to see how the GM chart comes out with that, lacking my own M8 right now...

Anyone want to pay Magne Neilson of ETC to develop some better generic profiles?
