Due to the manufacturing variances between camera batches these calibrations are not guaranteed to be 100% accurate.
To use these XMP calibration files place them in the following directories (for Photoshop CS2):
PC: C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Adobe\Camera Raw\Settings\
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Settings/
These profiles are designed to work with raw files converted using Adobe Camera Raw. Sharpening, Luminance Smoothing and Color Noise Reduction should all be turned off for optimal results.
These B&W conversion actions are a culmination of all conversion methods described in my Digital B&W series.
These actions are for increasing or decreasing color saturation in an image. Included is an action to create a saturation mask for controlling saturation in already heavily saturated areas. These techniques are described in detail in my Adjusting Color Saturation and Saturation Mask tutorials.
As described in the Soft Focus tutorial.
These actions will create mathematically derived charts for the purpose of testing color gamuts and profiles (The charts can be seen in many of my articles). Each image created will be 10"x10" at 300dpi. You have a choice between a 24 or 48 bit depth and your choice between sRGB, AdobeRGB, ProPhoto RGB or L*a*b*.
