The whole point of profiling and calibration is to take this element of
subjectivity out of the equation so that you can be sure of the results and
of what you are looking at on a monitor.

Actually I think it's because - as has been stated many, many times - that
accurate, predictable,controllable work-flow is important - vital, even - to
our profession, and there's the difference, a 'profession' with
'professionals' working within it as opposed to amateurs.

I believe, my dear Inno', that that is exactly what everyone else has been
doing! :)

If you are happy with what you are getting, then who are we to say
otherwise. Personally, I'm not sure that 'perfect' is a term that is
achievable and in any case a lot of us have been talking from the point of
view of providing image files for others to use - as I have said before.

May I suggest that as much valuable advice has been given in terms of
comparisons and profiling, etc, that it is up to you now Inno', as to what
you do with the information and perhaps we should consider this thread
closed?
