color management profiles
I just realized that I should have posted this in the Computer, etc forum. I reposted there..
I am new to this forum and new to digital photography. Although, I have been around digital prepress (scans and image editing) for some time.
I just acquired a E500 and I want to put my iMAC to work. Does the E500 attach a color profile to each image or, if not, where can I find the proper profile? I have done some searching but no luck so far. "Olympus Help" has not been a help so far....
Any help with getting the most predictable color out of my system would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Ray
Re: color management profiles
The E500 does attach a color profile. You can change it in the camera menus.
I usually shoot in aRGB and then convert to sRGB just before I save as a web-ready jpg or print at full resolution. I do this because I use photoshop for post-processing. Shoot in Adobe colorspace, edit in adobe colorspace seems to make sense to me. The final conversion to sRGB is so that the photos display well on non-adobe applications like firefox, IE, and print predictably.
Your results may vary.
