Had to think of a short title but here goes
The wifey is having problems printing out here pictures - basically they come out too dark. The basic setup is -
Canon 50d
PC with LCD panel printing mostly from Adobe LR3 and Photoshop CS5
Canon Pro 9000 MK2
I understand the LCD panel makes things look a lot lighter and increase the brightness of the photograph isn't the way forward.
I had a play round with color profiles and had no real joy but I think I need to do some calibration of the camera, monitor and printer so they "match".
The Pro 9000 MK2 does allow you to calibrate and create your own colour profile via "Color Management Pro Tool" using X-rite i1 series tools, these also can calibrate the monitor.
Is the way forward? Is there a simpler way?
