Color Management for Photographers Reviews

Colour management is a difficult subject to explain, and even harder to implement, but this book is one of the best I've seen on the subject...if you're determined to operate a fully managed workflow, this tome is essential. - What Digital Camera

Color Management for Photographers includes all the information you will need to make sure your colour profiles are accurate...(it) will be perfect for professional imageers who want precise, technical information. This book shows you how to create desired results, with easy step-by-steps guaranteed to help you produce successful print material. - Advanced Photoshop, April 2006

If you want to know more about the sometimes-complex world of managing color in digital imaging, this book is a good place to turn. - Photo Techniques

This is an ideal book for those working in virtually all areas of photography and prepress and publishing who have to deal with color management on a daily basis. There is a lot of color theory in this book but there is more practical hands on knowledge of color management in Photoshop . It is complete reference of color management. - DigitalMediaDesigner.com

Rodney de-mystifies colour management in an interesting, entertaining and encouraging way...more in-depth, complicated subjects are dealt with as painlessly as possible, and distilled with a bit of humour to help users of every level tackle colour management. - Digital Photographer

Author Andrew Rodney has done an excellent job in tackling this slippery subject, and although text heavy, effort has been made to ensure everything is explained as clearly as possible...All in all, a very helpful title. - Photoshop Creative

Rodney starts out explaining the basics of colour management and colour theory, but very quickly moves on to Photoshop workflows and ChromiX profile checking...The last chapters in the book contain tutorials on what has been covered before. This makes the book valuable in two directions: you could use it as a tutorial, but it is also a reference work that should be kept within reach. - IT-Enquirer

If you're really serious about color management, require presice color reproduction, and are willing to spend money to do things right, here's your starting point...If you've already committed to one suite or another, you'll still find this an incredibly valuable book as you work toward perfect color. This book should be reserved for color perfectionists. - Photoshop User, June 2006
