Over the Gamut and Through the Woods

The second article in the “Tech Corner” monthly column, by Mike Chaney, over on Steves Digicams is a great look at the potentially thorny subject of colour management:

“It seems that the longer you stick with a particular hobby or profession, the more complicated things get. In digital photography, once you get past that initial thrill of being able to view, edit, and print your own photos, you start to become aware of subtleties like the fact that certain colors on your monitor don’t match what is printed. You do some research and it seems that there is something called “color management” or “ICC profiles” that can fix your problem, but the whole concept seems almost like snake oil, or worse… some foreign language only spoken by rocket scientists.”
