sRGB and SWOP color spaces

[Dale]

SWOP color space was around before ICC
http://www.color.org

during the beginnings of ICC I was involved at Kodak in systems R&D

I knew, and communicated, on Kodak's internal ICC mailing list, that the
pursuit of sRGB would lead to people not using ICC, not calibrating
their devices, not characterizing their devics, but making their devices
as close to that standard and not using a profile

of what I have seen, this is the case

digital cameras use sRGB, monitors use sRGB, etc.,

I'm not saying, sRGB, SWOP, or ProPhotoRGB are good working spaces, but
they don't replace an actual profile for the device

soon this shit will hit the fan in "soft proofing", proofing output on
the monitor, since monitors are now not only CRT with a couple different
phosphors now, but those CRT,LCD,LED,Plasma,OLED

there should be some communication is using REAL profiles in color
managed workflows

How about your expertise on the proper use of optical narrow bandpass

and spectrum cut-off filters?

hardware doesn't really apply when you need to translate one device
color to another, unless the devices are similar, like both RGB, and
even then there are issues like gamut mapping, etc.

if you really want a multi-purpose image, you need software
