color profile input: a question

Nicolas Vilars
Hi all,

I have started playing with the color management model of Digikam 0.9.
As I have recently switch to raw data picture, I'm also quite pleased
with the tons of new features for that too... so a great thanks to the
Digikam team!

I think that I get almost all my answers in previous post, but "color
profile input" are still puzzling me... I am using a Minolta 7D for my
shooting and I ask the camera to work/tag in AdobeRGB mode. However
their is no way I can convince Digikam to use AdobeRGB as an input mode
in the Digikam "Configuration/Configure/ColorManagement" menu. It seems
to wait for a camera specific icm profile.

So what I do is I open the raw file, wait for the color management box
to appear, manually select the input to be AdobeRGB... and that's all...
however, I'm not sure I have the good workflow here ;-)

Besides, when I select sRGB input profile, the result is plain ugly:
gamma is false, color awful...

Besides I've read from Gilles Caullier in earlier post that you were
using Minolta 5D profile(??). Is this something you build specifically
(shooting a patch of colors and such?)? Something you downloaded from
Minolta? (Where?)

Any tips for me?

You can't select AdobeRGB profile as input color profile because it isn't an
input device class profile: it's a display device class one.

Have you tray to find an input color profile for your camera model?, you could
find it in software for windows whichs is packaged with the camera itself or
from Bibble Pro, you can download a trial version of this app and play with
the icc profiles it install.

But then, why can I configure my camera to save files in AdobeRGB?  
If I open such a file, digikam also tells me, that it is AdobeRGB
embedded.

I suppose this setting are for jpegs, such as the contrast and

 There are 2 options:

- Your camera is doing the conversion from and unknown profile to adobeRGB and
is embedding this one into the image.
- Your camera isn't doing the conversion, but it's embedding such icc profile.

In my modest opinnion, if you are working with RAW images, then there is no
conversion and the profiles is embedding only. On the other hand if there'd
be a color transformation, if you apply a second one, the image should be
showed with strange colors, i think. You can test with a transformed image,
try to apply a second color transform using adobeRGB profile again an look at
the result.

No i'm using Minolta ICC camera profile from DImage Master. Files are here :

http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/ICCPROFILES/CameraProfiles/

Also, you can use the ICC profiles from BibbePro software. Look here :

In my Dynax 5D all JPEG file taken using AdobeRGB color space use the .JPE
file extension.

and 3rd possiblilty : the camera use the exif.image.colorspace tag to set the
right color space use to transform the image : 0 = undefined, 1 = sRGB, 2 =
AdobeRgb, 0 = undefined, 65535 = uncalibrated. Look here :

http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/EXIF.html 

...and search colorspace tag. digiKam parse this tag value when image is
loaded in editor and embedded automaticly the right icc color space profile.

Some cameras do it, but this is have a non-sence with a RAW file : this one
must be transformed in a computer after downloading. There is no color
trnasformation performed by camera.

IF you have a Dynax 5d, can you give me the Lens that you use ? I very
interressed to improve the Exiv2 lens detection with Minolta makernote
implementation.

take a picture with a lens and scan the jpeg file taken using Exiv2 command
line tool like this:

exiv2 -pt MINOLTA-DYNAX5D.JPG | grep LensID

if you have a number instead a string description of the lens, please give me
some details about the lens. I will add this one into Exiv2 library.

Note: Exiv2 is used by digiKAm to manage Exif/makernote/iptc metadata from
pictures.

no luck, I'm using a 7D.
My lenses are :
- Minolta 28-70/2.8
- Sigma 100-300/4 EX

Still interested though?

Great!
Thanks, for the ICC profiles.

I didn't mention it but I tried the one from bibble but the minolta1 & 2
didn't gave me any good results. As I don't know exactly for which
camera they are made exactly... However the ones on the first link looks
good, I will try them tonight. The odd thing is that I have DImage
Master running on my box (wine), but when I checked the installation
folders, there was no profiles...

Googling around didn't gave me any good information. So thank you!

Yes this sounds like the normal behaviour.

Given what has been said above, I shouldn't be able to do such a thing,
should I?

Ok, so this is why /if/ there is no input profile, Digikam is selecting
sRGB as the default (at least this seems to be the case when I look at
the color space properties of my RAW pictures) despite exif saying that
the color space is AdobeRGB?

Yes, of course : Minolta makernote from 7D and 5D are around the same. about
the LensId tag, it's the same.

Look recently the new Sony Alpha 100 use also the Dynax 5D makernote. (normal
since Sony have buy all Minolta digital camera business)

Right.  But I don't work with RAW, as my camera is terribly slow in
saving RAW images.  Therefore I normally take JPGs.  As far as I
can see, the camera does the conversion.  Otherwise I would assume,
to see more difference when opening the image with other non-CMS
programs, right?

What does digikam, when opening an image with a profile embedded?  
Is this profile used?

There are one or two in exiftool that haven't been ported yet, as well:

http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/Minolta.html

If you find out about any more, it would be nice to patch exiftool at the same
time, as it is my major source of information for exiv2 so I take a lot from
there :)

digiKam check if this embedded profile is the same than default profile set in
ICC configuration. If no, digiKam ask to user about to use the default
profile instead the embeded, else emdeded profile is used.

So at least notify Phil of what you found.  We can't just take information
from exiftool and not give anything back (where possible).  That's hardly
fair.

no, because it's just a question of time and priority. But you can do it if
you want.
