The next to the last step in my workflow--before sharpening--is to
soft proof the image, sometimes lighten things up with a touch of the
curses tool, and then convert the image to the Fugi's Crystal Archive
matte or glossy ICC profile. In some prints--those with large blocks
of the primary colors-- you may not see a differences. But with images
where you have, say, red tones shifting into yellow tones, you end up
with more accurate colors..


Strange. Most of my curses use is post-printing...

Heh.

Right. I've been cursed with a mind that doesn't know the differences
between curses and curves. Not that some things with curves have led
to some muttered- curses.

Very good indeed, if this was a forum then this should be a 'sticky' always

Do we have a FAQ that we could add it to?

We used to see many paper longevity posts here (acceleration tests).
Some involved putting prints on a dashboard of a car in 150 degree
heat for 3 days. Now that 4x6 prints can be had much cheaper from
a local CVS than from home I don't see anymore testimonials. See?
It's the money, or lack of, that drives the desire for more or less =
and
how we rationalize why we can or can't.

Maybe in your case that is true.

In my case I chose a camera that suits my needs, and until something=20
radical happens in printing technology, I don't see any reason to buy=20
anything different.

Understandable. Are you a recent convert to digital?

Not really. I've had digital cameras for three years, but before that I
used them at work, and for nearly 10 years I've been working with digital
images through scanning.

Conceeding to your point (just a little ;-) It would be really fun to have
one of those Sony cameras with the built in IR illuminators, but I don't
feel like parting with the money just for that one feature.

The pattern it creates reminds of the movie Predator.
Whenever we went on vacation I would take along
a laptop because the cards filled quickly. Today I
manage without the laptop and with just one 512
compact flash card. We enjoy moving about from
one B&B to another so the less we have to unpack
and then repack is good.
If you're interested here's a link to a on-line album
of our most recent trip. My wife snapped about 100
shots but I narrowed it down to just a few images
from one event.
Take care.
