eronald Posted January 23, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted January 23, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) HOSTING REQUEST Â I NEED A PLACE TO HOST THIS PROFILE - I CANNOT UPLOAD IT HERE, SAFETY HAS YET AGAIN TRIUMPHED OVER FUNCTIONALITY. Â I have made an M8 JPG profile intended to be used with "Assign Profile" in Photoshop, with M8 JPG files. Â The Colorchecker SG was quickly shot in overcast dayligth under the daylight setting, and input into Monaco Profiler 4.8. No adjustment of the file was done. Â This profile might be of use to some. Or then it may not. Â Edmund Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie Roberts Posted January 23, 2007 Share #5 Â Posted January 23, 2007 Hey Edmund-- Â What source color space are you using for the JPEGs in camera? sRGB or aRGB? Â Also, did you get my PM on the DCC? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eronald Posted January 23, 2007 Author Share #6 Â Posted January 23, 2007 Hey Edmund--Â What source color space are you using for the JPEGs in camera? sRGB or aRGB? Â Also, did you get my PM on the DCC? Â Hi Jamie, Â Just saw your PM - thanks for nudging me. Yes, I would appreciate your sending me the DCC shot. As for the JPEGs I have the camera set to sRGB for Jpegs, because that is the standard - wierd thing is loading the pix from the M8 into PS with no profile assigned (aRGB workspace) gives very nice skin tone. Â Have a look at the profile please - the SG image looks really good with it, and I expect I could have done a product shoot with that light. I don't know how feasible it is generally to use a profile made with approximative white balance - but then this is just a preliminary test, I will try running a profile from the DNG file next. Â What is encouraging is that I had a look at some other shots, and now for the first time I really have deep blacks rather than dark greens in the images - where before there were magentas. Â As you know this is just a beginning, there are lots of toys in the trick box which we can now play with if the shots are good enough ...

eronald Posted January 23, 2007 Author Share #7 Â Posted January 23, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I've now run another profile using C1 on the DNG file. An unpleasant process, I could not find a way to switch off the white balance in C1 entirely. However, the resulting linear Tiff file, when assigned the generated profile in Photoshop looks very much like the Jpeg file with its own computed profile - and both are definitely in the same ballpark as the Colorchecker SG !!!! Â As far as I'm concerned, Colorchecker SG and Monaco Profiler are a good beginning for product shooting with the M8. Not that anyone except Guy Mancuso would ever want to do product shooting with the M8. I still have to try Profile Maker Pro and look at fine tuning the process.

Guest guy_mancuso Posted January 24, 2007 Share #8 Â Posted January 24, 2007 i would normally use the DMR with a shift and tilt lens but a little prespective work in PS can really get you by not to bad. LOL Â I shot from the same height and just did a action to run on each file to correct the prespective and not to shabby a result from a little RF camera. Â For this type of work it came out perfect Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to convert with C1 in daylight mode.  YouSendIt: The Leader in File Delivery. http://www.leica-camera-user.com/digital-forum/14501-m8-c1-daylight-profile-486-a.html  Edmund Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
