p.2 #1 · Best practices for using a MacBook Pro Display for Photo Editing???

I just tried it. Select Soft Proofing and sRGB. I don't see any difference between the two except the white border. Am I supposed to?

I can depend on the image in question. Even if you have a file which is capable of showing a huge gamut range, if the colours in it might fit within sRGB anyway, then no you wouldn't see a difference.

Now it's been a long time since my days with LR, but I seem to remember seeing a slight change of contrast when switching between LR's native ProPhoto display and softproofing to sRGB. That was always curious to me. Mere colourspace shouldn't change the contrast - but that was quite a few years ago so maybe it was something not ironed out by Adobe.

If you have an image with colours generated by strong coloured LED lighting and your shot in Raw - I'm guessing you'd see the difference then.

If you have ProPhoto installed in your ColorSync folder, it'll show up as an available output space for Capture One. My usual output space for at least the last ten years has been DonRGB from color expert Don Hutcheson, purveyor of the infamous Hutchcolor Target for scanner profiling.


Well I've learned something new today...

Can't imagine why I would ever want to explore it, but always nice to know a new thing. I'll be sticking with the good ol' standards... sRGB, aRGB, CMYK for anything other than video work.

I can think of a lot of reasons...
