Hi,
I have a set of photos of paintings already scanned from transparencies (with full range, I'm told).
I no longer have access to the paintings or the transparencies.
The photos were taken with a kodak color control strip at the side of each painting so there is a strip of reference colors as part of each image.
Now, I want to know how I can reliably color correct these images based on the color strip. I know what colors should be in the color strip, and so I assume I should be able to manipulate the image as a whole based on these differentials.
Is there a reliable way to go about this in photoshop, or perhaps a plugin I can purchase?

Thanks for any help,
NH

Image >> Adjustments >> levels.


Takes some getting use to but by far the best way to correct images.

Use the dropper tools to the right to set your ranges.
