I took pictures in a print shop recently. One of the shots was of an open bucket with wet magenta printing ink in and around it. All of my raw converters (LR3, C1 5, Capture NX 2, RD and even RPP) showed a solid warm red but no magenta no matter what (at least halfway correct) white balance or what calibration preset I chose. I'm using a calibrated Quato monitor that can display the full Adobe RGB colour space, so the monitor is most probably not the problem. Colour tweaking in LR and C1 brought me closer to what I saw with my eyes but still no real match. Is this again one of those "uncleaned corners" of the LAB colour space (like my "purple blues"-post some time earlier in this forum) or does Nikon's sensor not recognize this colour correctly? Or is it an unsolved problem of camera profiling?
