Hello! This would be answer to question 1 I understood, that coolproof is not the ideal tool to create profiles from raw sensor. In fact, it's the only one. When you write "by hand" you mean, that I need to write another tool by myself. Of course, it's kind of an aswer :-) But this is rather hard thing. And, on the other hand, I think that only slighter code changes are needed. Coolproof in matrix+gamma mode reads ".ti3" values and try to 1. Guess gamma values; 2. Find matrix for this gamma. The only key I need is "not to guess gamma upon ti3 values, and assume gamma is [some value]". The linearity of camera sensor is quite a good assumption. By analizing this or that real data you get "gamma 2.18" or "gamma 2.21", and this number would be not exactly 2.2 only beacause of camera noise. > yan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [1] wrote:> 1.

You can't "force" the profile model and expect it to be a good fit to the samples. There is no point in doing such a thing - the whole purpose of a profile is to represent the color behaviour of the device. colprof is not the ideal tool to create profiles from raw sensor data that's been converted to samples, since it is doing a "best fit". You are probably better off creating a matrix and curve model "by hand". Note that you (ideally) need both the spectral sensitivity data, and the response data for each sensor. The curves should then translate the sensor responses to linear light, and the matrix convert to XYZ space > > Graeme Gill. Links: ------ [1] mailto:yan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
