IT8 colour calibration?

Postby sandcastle » Mon Sep 04, 2017 12:48 am

Hi there.

I'm trying to figure out how to check if colour calibration has "worked" and is still being applied correctly.

I bought and used SilverFast's targets and it gives me a success message, but I saw a post somewhere saying the IT8 icon should change but it hasn't. How can I tell in software, and per image, if the correct colour calibrated profiles are being used (noting I use HDR studio so save ad HDR TIFF file then process to a jpeg later.

Do these setting remain even if you use any of the "reset" options in the service dialogue, or do you need to redo them?

What about if you delete or reset frame settings?

Thanks.

Dear user,

The calibration process will tell you if anything has gone wrong.

If you reset SilverFast you will have to either do the calibration again or reselect the created profile in the preferences' CMS menu for Input.

The profiles created by the IT8 calibration start with SF_T (for transparency), SF_K (for Kodachrome) or SF_R (for Reflective).

Kind regards,
Arne
