How feasible would it be to use an IT8 target to calibrate a decent camera (i.e. manual exposure, RAW capture), and then turn around and use that to calibrate a computer monitor? I tried awhile back, but got bogged down trying to do the necessary table flipping.
The big problem in the approach you describe isn't inverting the tables - that's certianly confusing but can be figured out. It's accounting for the lighting on the IT8 - you need a controlled light source to make a meaningful profile. When you did this, what light source did you use to illuminate the IT8, and what you were thining about how that related to the white point of the display? I have found that when I take pictures of displays they often come out badly. But I haven't tried with a tripod and a longish exposure, to get well past the refresh rate. But, I think that what you suggest is doable, and you may want to check out http://lprof.sourceforge.net/ as a starting point or a framework for your efforts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
