So if I make sure my gamma correction is always at 1.8 and I always leave all the sliders alone, I should be able to produce consistent reference scans that I can apply the same set of adjustments (ICC profile, maybe others) to later on to produce something as accurate as possible? I just want to make sure I'm not forgetting anything. - Grant
