Has anyone else trouble getting those profiles created with a ColorChecker Passport (Photo2) to work correctly with Capture One? I'm not able to get true blacks with these Profiles - the rest of the color seems to be in order, but the images look slightly less contrasty and no matter what I do, I can't get a true black (0 0 0 0) value with them. The ColorChecker Passport is a pocket sized photographic tool that has three targets housed in one plastic case. Equally important is the software that comes with the ColorChecker (DVD or Download) which allows creation of DNG profiles for your specific camera. The new and more powerful ColorChecker Passport Photo 2 is the indispensable tool that helps you capture the colors of the world more perfectly and ensures that from initial capture to edit, you are beginning with the most accurate files possible. No matter where you set off to explore and create, always have your Passport.

A lot of photographers like to work with Capture One because the colour rendition is one of the best you can get from a raw converter. While this is true for most of the cameras and situations, there might still be some issues with specific cameras or images. For quite a long time photographers requested the support for X-Rite’s ColorChecker Passport Photo and other targets. Up til now, PhaseOne has not implemented an easy way to use the ColorChecker Passport and furthermore X-Rite had no support for Capture One in their software.

But times have changed, X-Rite released a new version of the ColorChecker Passport Software which allows photographers to create ICC camera profiles from pictures including the ColorChecker Passport.

I’m currently writing an article that shows the process in depth.
Furthermore, I will make a comparison of X-Rite’s free ColorChecker Passport software with basICColor input 5 and hopefully with Lumariver Profile Designer.
