I can answer that for you Paul. NO they are not colour managed. My partner went into the local Jessup's with her daughters digital wedding snaps taken by a pro, all checked out and colour corrected etc here. The results varied from good to washed out and the store manager essentially said tough luck,its all automated so no correction can be done I offered to calibrate the monitor of one local independent minilab free just so they would get my prints right and they declined as they were used to what they had despite the monitor having a colour cast which was visible !! I don't use them for digital prints at all now. Regards Michael Wilkinson. 106 Holyhead Rd, Ketley, Telford, Shropshire.
