Color Management


PhotoNet article on Color Management.It is well written and relatively concise. It is a good introduction to the topic. It starts with the monitor and goes all the way through the printing process. The author of that article also wrote an interesting article on monitor calibration and wide gamut displays. Here is an article he wrote on Checking the accuracy of your monitor.

Luminous Landscape, a really great photography website, has recently posted an article by Andrew Rodney titled Why Are My Prints Too Dark. It is very current and address some maters that have arisen since the 2005 publication of his excellent book on the subject; Color Management for Photographers. I encourage you to read it and the numerous articles that he links to.

X-rite is the largest and most popular manufacturer of color management products. They make a product called the Color Munki Photo which is a very reasonably priced color management package targeted at photographers. They produced a nice series on videos on using the device. The first video on color is especially well produced and concise.
