Hmm, you're right. I found this on the ufraw site, and it does seem believable. Much better than sRGB, which is otherwise the default. I also found some profiles on the (windoze/Mac) CD that came with the camera, and one of them "/home/simon/NKDBase_NEF.icm" seems to produce reasonably good results--albeit rather low contrast--with RAW (.nef) files. Unfortunately, Nikon's help desk seem largely illiterate about this. Maybe I asked wrong, or just happened to get the wrong individual. I'll probably try again. ... > Also I have purchased ink from MediaStreet but I did not know that > they also > would create custom profiles. How much do they charge for this > service? Mediastreet do it for free :) You provide the paper and ink, and they keep the information for their database. But they don't charge for it and give you these for free for any device/paper combination they have previously profiled. I guess if you want one that's specific to your own individual printer but the printer/paper combination is already in their database, you could invent some fictitious paper and claim it was that :) See: http://mygallery.mediastreet.com/profile_finder.html. If they can't find your combination in their DB, they send you an email inviting you to print off the targets (also downloadable for free) and mail them to them. The targets are two sheets, with about 900 swatches total, so I'm guessing it's a fairly serious profiling system they're using. Many thanks for all the info, it's much appreciated.
