Godfrey:
That's a wonderfully formulated description. I wish I've seen it laid out 
this clearly many years ago, instead of collecting bits and pieces 
from various sources.



BTW, for the benefit of Mark and others interested in the question: here 
is a nice illustration of various color gamuts in relation to the 
CMYK gamut. It illustrates the "hierarchy" of the gamuts:

https://goo.gl/UJkgIr .
Roughly, one can assume that the maximum color gamut of a photo printer
does not exceed CMYK, but the particular paper (and ink-set) can make it 
yet smaller.



Mark,

To clarify what I meant: When you calibrate a monitor, you create a 
monitor profile and the OS uses it to set the monitor accordingly.

That assures that the color with a particular combination of parameters
is presented according to the accepted "standard".

At the same time, programs should use that profile to know how to 
interpret the images they are working with for correct presentation on the 
monitor. I.e., a program should know what should be the output colorspace
to peform the correct translation from whatever colorspace used to store 
the image.
Some software does not consult the current profile, just assuming that the 
monitor is using SRGB colorspace.

In that case, if you force the monitor itself (internally) to imitate
SRGB colorspace, then the image would look "close enough".
That'sin a way bringing the mountain to Muhammad. ;-)

At least, that's how it works on Windows (or my interpretation of it).

Cheers,

Igor

It's not a 'hassle' to work with Adobe RGB. Any editing is a lossy process, 
with Adobe RGB you lose less than you lose with sRGB, with ProPhoto RGB you 
lose less than with either. It only makes sense to do your *editing* in the 
greatest bit depth and largest color space you can use, and convert/downscale 
color space and bit depth for output products.

Printers don't have a color space per se. They have gamut (the range of colors 
they can produce) and Dmax (the maximum density they can produce). Both of 
those are the combined characteristics of the printer's mechanisms, ink, and 
paper used. An output calibration profile maps the colors represented on screen 
in your image into the printer/ink/paper's Dmax and gamut. 

Most higher-end printers these days do a pretty good job of covering the 
standard sRGB colorspace. Adobe RGB, as I mentioned in another post, was 
designed to emulate (or encompass, probably a more precise word in this 
context) the gamut and density of a late 1990s CMYK web press, which is both 
slightly larger in gamut and differently weighted from an RGB display.

Consumer print services generally presume sRGB or untagged images, so you're 
safe with that. 

Good print services (high-end, pro, whatever) provide instructions and/or 
output profiles to optimize your image files for their printing process. Or 
they'll tell you whether they want 8- or 16-bit, and sRGB or Adobe RGB to print 
from.

As I said earlier, sRGB color space was designed to *model* the native 
characteristics of a high quality CRT. Obviously, not all displays are 100% 
sRGB calibrated (or capable) as delivered. All displays, standard and wide 
gamut included, benefit from calibration and profiling for the purposes of 
being a reference display for editing. A good display profile is most 
definitely NOT sRGB or Adobe RGB … It's a device dependent color calibration 
profile based on the specific hardware characteristics of the display and the 
graphics adapter used to drive its display. 

Today's high-end modern displays have a built-in colorimeter and automated 
calibration and profiling hardware and software. 

sRGB, Adobe RGB, and ProPhoto RGB are device-agnostic color space standards 
created to enable a standardized transformation of image rendering from one 
machine to another, one display to another, enabling you to move files from 
machine to machine and get the same rendered result. Rendering software that 
honors color management takes the data from the image file, color space tagged, 
and transforms it through the La*b* domain using the display CCP on your system 
to show it to you. It similarly takes the data from your rendered image and 
transforms it through the La*b* domain using the output printer calibration 
profile to produce a high

The Epson printers give you the option of letting Photoshop control color, and 
they work well printing from Prophoto 16 bit files. The paper profiles allow 
the printer to translate those parameters to the paper you're using. I don't 
understand all the tech. But I can get an exact copy of what appears on my 
Retina 5k monitor when printing 16 bit Prophoto to Epson Ultra Premium Luster 
paper, using the appropriate ICC paper profile.

A few reactions to the quoted post -

- Its not much of a hassle to work in Adobe RGB. Just convert to SRGB 
before saving for screen devices. I just use a Photoshop action that 
resizes, converts the color space, flattens layers, drops the image from 
16 bits to 8 bit and saves as a jpg. I've been using Adobe RGB for core 
files since I first stated with Photoshop 5.


- When it comes to printing - I may be wrong on this but I don't think 
that the Epson printer I use is either an sRGB or Adobe RGB device. 
Basically there is a native color space for each type of paper and a 
corresponding color profile. The color space isn't sRGB or Adobe RGB, 
it's "Premium Glossy" or "Enhanced Matte" or whatever... The color 
spaces for the different types of papers can be fairly constrained (in 
the case of matte papers particularly) or broad. It makes sense to use a 
wider gamut like Adobe RGB in source files for printing and let the 
print process convert colors that are outside the destination gamut if 
needed. Epson i s continually increasing the gamut of their inks and 
papers, so it seems best to preserve as much color info in the source 
file as possible, in case you want to print it in the future.


- Printing via services - for low end services (drug stores, big box 
stores) converting to srgb makes sense. Its a safe harbor - sRGB is the 
least common denominator so odds are any printer can handle it. If you

Flat out - if you're mostly displaying your work on the web, use sRGB.

Read this article: https://fstoppers.com/pictures/adobergb-vs-srgb-3167

Your goal should be to work in the same color space that your target
audience will be seeing. For 99% of computer monitors, that means
SRGB. Doesn't matter if you personally have a wide-gamut monitor, most
people don't.

If you work in anything else, you are just creating extra hassle for
yourself because you won't know how the image will look to the rest of
the world. You'll have to just edit it again for the people stuck in
the sRGB color space.

You can create the photo with a non-sRGB color space and let the web
automatically convert/interpret the colors to sRGB. But if you let the
web do that conversion, it will not do a great job, some colors will
look off or desaturated... whereas your own conversion will be exactly
what you want.

If you shoot raw, there is no color space assigned (yet). If you then
import the raw into lightroom, lightroom is actually temporarily
working in their version of the ProPhoto RGB color space,
(http://digital-photography-school.com/everything-need-know-lightroom-colour-space/)
which has the biggest gamut of color. Then when you're done playing
with the various sliders and you like how it looks on the screen, you
can export to sRGB, AdobeRGB, or ProPhoto. Lightroom will convert the
colors to the chosen profile, not just assign the profile blindly, and
it will do a good job of it.

AdobeRGB is specifically for printing (since most devices with screens
cannot display it) and even then, many printers can't handle it either
and are working in sRGB. So unless you want to risk paying money for a
nice print and then it comes out with wacky colors, stick to sRGB.

You can of course work in AdobeRGB for your own personal wallpaper, or
make specialized versions of some images for other people with
wide-gamut monitors.

these color spaces can be fully represented in 8bit numbers.

- Use AdobeRGB when a client or a print service requires it on your outputted 
image files.

- Use sRGB for any other photo sharing on computers.

- Allow your image processing software and a fully color-managed printing 
workflow to take your images directly from their final, edited, 16-bit ProPhoto 
RGB form to whatever your printer requires for best printing fidelity. The goal 
should be as perfect a match on paper to what you see on screen in the editing 
environment. This applies to standard and wide gamut displays alike.

- sRGB was designed to model the better computer displays of the 1990s. 

- AdobeRGB (1998) was designed to model the color-offset printing equipment 
available in that same time period. 

- ProPhoto RGB was designed in the early 2000s to model the maximum color space 
achievable with a 16-bit per component digital sensor. 

With that in mind: 

- Calibrate and profile your system's display to allow it to be used as a 
reference when adjusting your photographs, and to promote accurate translations 
to other displays and printer needs.

- Use ProPhoto RGB to edit images in 16-bit depth In order to minimize 
round-off errors in editing. 

- Convert images to AdobeRGB or sRGB before converting to 8-bit since both of 
these color spaces can be fully represented in 8bit numbers. 

- Use AdobeRGB when a client or a print service requires it on your outputted 
image files. 

- Use sRGB for any other photo sharing on computers. 

- Allow your image processing software and a fully color-managed printing

Flat out - if you're mostly displaying your work on the web, use sRGB.

Read this article: https://fstoppers.com/pictures/adobergb-vs-srgb-3167

Your goal should be to work in the same color space that your target
audience will be seeing. For 99% of computer monitors, that means
SRGB. Doesn't matter if you personally have a wide-gamut monitor, most
people don't.


one thing i'd note is that if you have a wide audience "computer monitor" 
should be broadened to include mobile devices; current iPhones and iPads 
have pretty much exactly sRGB gamut; iPad Pro meets DCI-P3, an up-and-coming 
display standard that extends sRGB about halfway to the extra greens and 
blues of Adobe RGB


some Android devices are also wide-gamut, and there are wider-gamut 
standards and displays on the horizon, so i think if you are buying a 
display for photo editing to last you a few years, it's worth going beyond 
sRGB in capability


[also from the linked article]

You can create the photo with a non-sRGB color space and let the web
automatically convert/interpret the colors to sRGB. But if you let the
web do that conversion, it will not do a great job, some colors will
look off or desaturated... whereas your own conversion will be exactly
what you want.


and unfortunately you'll want to consider reconverting in a couple of years 
when the consumer display space has moved forward


it's also worth pointing out that for web images it's the browser or the OS, 
not the web, that does the conversion

I'm no expert on this stuff, but it seems to me that Adobe RGB is
specifically for printing and THEN only if the printer can handle it
and is ALSO calibrated to match your calibrated monitor.

In research I found this post, which seemed to make a lot of sense to me:



Flat out - if you're mostly displaying your work on the web, use sRGB.

Read this article: https://fstoppers.com/pictures/adobergb-vs-srgb-3167

Your goal should be to work in the same color space that your target
audience will be seeing. For 99% of computer monitors, that means
SRGB. Doesn't matter if you personally have a wide-gamut monitor, most
people don't.

If you work in anything else, you are just creating extra hassle for
yourself because you won't know how the image will look to the rest of
the world. You'll have to just edit it again for the people stuck in
the sRGB color space.

You can create the photo with a non-sRGB color space and let the web
automatically convert/interpret the colors to sRGB. But if you let the
web do that conversion, it will not do a great job, some colors will
look off or desaturated... whereas your own conversion will be exactly
what you want.

If you shoot raw, there is no color space assigned (yet). If you then
import the raw into lightroom, lightroom is actually temporarily
working in their version of the ProPhoto RGB color space,
(http://digital-photography-school.com/everything-need-know-lightroom-colour-space/)
which has the biggest gamut of color. Then when you're done playing
with the various sliders and you like how it looks on the screen, you
can export to sRGB, AdobeRGB, or ProPhoto. Lightroom will convert the
colors to the chosen profile, not just assign the profile blindly, and
it will do a good job of it.

AdobeRGB is specifically for printing (since most devices with screens
cannot display it) and even then, many printers can't handle it either
and are working in sRGB. So unless you want to risk paying money for a
nice print and then it comes out with wacky colors, stick to sRGB.

You can of course work in AdobeRGB for your own personal wallpaper, or
make specialized versions of some images for other people with
wide-gamut monitors.

Gee Toto. I don't think we're in Kansas any more.

That is *SO* damn cool! One or a dozen of my bucket list items are to

Re: OT: Monitor Specs

2016-04-28 Thread Igor PDML-StR

Hdmi is digital, cha is analog.
Hdmi-to-vga "adapter"  actually needs to be a digital -to-analog converter.
But IIRC, some video cards can send an analog signal if they sense a simple 
adapter. ... or something like that... I forgot the details. So, even if 
your video card can do that , your hdmi-dvi adapter doesn't  create that 
condition.


So,  you either need a correct direct hdmi-vga adapter (I bought one from 
Amazon for $10-17), or you need an hdmi-vga converter, if the video card is 
not capable.


Situation with dvi is probably similar.
