Video Essays
We occasionally publish long-form essays on color science on our YouTube channel. These videos address pertinent issues behind our products.
In this first episode of Alchemy Color, we go through the basis of digital development for raw stills and how calibration matters for discerning photographers. What’s the difference between Adobe’s default and custom-made profiles? Why does color science influence the decision-making process of buying a new camera? At the end, we introduce our first product and show some comparisons.
In this second episode of Alchemy Color, we explore some misconceptions about old digital sensors and how we came to think that some camera models, under specific circumstances, look like film. Furthermore, we explore the possibility of emulating old digital cameras with contemporary sensors.
