Hi, Ok, I managed to compile and run the basecurve calculation program. The basecurve I get looks very similar to default canon curve. The colors look a bit closer to what I expect. Still a certain blue tone turns to purple while other blue tones stay blue. I wonder if there is another solution, e.g. by changing color zones.
Thanks for your help so far!
