Effects On Older 3F Images; Keyboard Shortcuts - Hasselblad CF DIGITAL CAMERA BACK RANGE User Manual

independently for each color channel. The midpoint controls for the independent
channels do not implement a strict gamma curve, so the effects are slightly different
(though similar). These midpoint values are therefore shown as pixel levels (0 - 255)
rather than gamma values. Note, however, that you will rarely if ever use these
controls because their effects are very difficult to predict accurately. When you are
using a camera (or working with camera images), sliders are not provided for the
independent color channels.

Effects on Older 3F images

3F images scanned or captured with an older version FlexColor will include setups
that use the old gamma setting rather than the new midtone setting. They will also be
using one of the old color profiles, which were designed to work with midtone 1.20
(gamma 2.2). When you open one of these images in FlexColor 4.5, the gamma
setting will be translated to a midtone setting that has the same effect. Note, however,
that the scales are different, so an old gamma setting of 2.2 translates to a midtone
setting of 1.20.
For scanner images, your old color profiles will work fine, so you do not need to do
anything special when opening an old file. However, for camera images, you must use
the new profiles, which expect a midtone setting of 1.0 rather than the previous
default equivalent of 1.2. You must therefore either update the 3F file to use one of
the setups included with FlexColor 4.5 or change your existing setup to use the new
camera profiles and then change the midtone to 1.00 to match. See "New Color
Handling for Camera Captures" on page 19 for details.
