Color correction - matching color from two captures?

Hi, Shooting inside the same room with the same light, I seem to have got the walls a little more yellow in one of my takes. There is a subject (blue shirt) and a mechanical system (painted blue) with the background an off white paint on a block wall. I have used Color Corrector but can't seem to get it just right. Is there a way I can sample the color in a good frame, then use the sample to correctly match the incorrect segment? Thanks.

Here's a trick that may help. Try applying the 3 way color corrector filter, reducing the saturation to 0 and limiting the effect to high luma areas (the white walls). I had a shoot a few years ago with flourescent lights that created a color fluctuation that was only visible in white areas. This fixed it.

How do I extract matching records from two tables?

I'm trying to extract client records from our client database to put together a very targeted email campaign. As an example, the result I want is a list of names and email addresses of those clients who have a record in our system, have not had a visit in our clinic in the last year, and live within 200 miles of our clinic. I can capture the first two criteria in one extract, and the second in another. I can then import those as tab delimited data into Numbers. What I then need to do is create a third table that represents ONLY those records that exist in both tables.
Can someone tell me if this is possible and if so, how to do it?
I'd be very appreciative of any help, thank you.

You can create a column that generates a serial marker on the table from which you want to transfer the data, making all the names that also appear on the other table. Not that the formula will mark only exact matches.
Here's a short example:
Table 1 on the left, is one of the two tables imported from the tab delimited data files. It has other data, but only the names in column A are used to identify records appearing on both tables.
Table 2 on the right, contains the names and other data (represented by the email addresses in column B), to be transferred to the third table.
Column C of this table contains the formula that counts off the rows containing names appearing on both tables. The version below is in C2, and is filled down to the end of the column.
=IF(COUNTIF(Table 1 :: $B,A2)>0,MAX($C$1:C1)+1,"")
Note that jane Doe is not counted (or transferred) as her name is recorded differently on the two tables.
Table 3 is the results table. It contains one formula for each column to be transferred from Table 2 to Table 3.
A2: =IF((ROW()-1>MAX(Table 2 :: $C)),"",LOOKUP(ROW()-1,Table 2 :: $C,Table 2 :: $A))
B2: =IF((ROW()-1>MAX(Table 2 :: $C)),"",LOOKUP(ROW()-1,Table 2 :: $C,Table 2 :: $B))
Regards,
Barry
EDIT: I was working in Numbers '09 when developing this, and got the following warning when I saved a copy as an iWork '08 document:
Referencing row or column ranges that include header or footer cells isn't supported. The formula references were updated to exclude header and footer cells.
The formulas in Table 2::C2 references C1. You may have to ensure that Table 2 does not include a header row.
B.
EDIT2: A check on the file in Numbers '08 showed no apparent change to the formula, and editing Jane Doe's name on table 1 resulted in her name being added to Table 3.

Find matching records from two tables, useing three key fields, then replace two fields in table1 from table2

I have two tables - table1 and table2 - that have the exact same schema. There are three fields that can be used to compare the data of the two tables, field1, field2, and field3. When there are matching rows in the two tables (table1.field1/2/3 = table2.field1/2/3)
I want to replace table1.field4 with table2.field4 and replace table1.field5 with table2.field5.
I have worked with the query but have come up with goobly goop. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

If your field1, field2, and field3 combinations in these tables are unique, you
can do a join on them.
Select t1.field4, t2.field4 , t1.field5, t2.field5
from table1 t1 inner join table2 t2 on t1.field1 =t2.field1 and t1.field2=t2.field2 AND t1.field3=t2.field3
--You can update your table1 with following code:
Merge table1 t1
using table2 t2 on
on t1.field1 =t2.field1 and t1.field2=t2.field2 AND t3.field3=t2.field3
When matched then
Update Set
t1.field4= t2.field4
,t1.field5 = t2.field5 ;

Matching records from two tables even when the ID of a person is null.

I have a MySQL named Natural Systems which is a magazine account that it member's will both sell handmade items wherein the proceeds will go into the Natural Systems account and each member also give a weekly donation. All of the proceeds will help toward the printing of the subsequent volumes. both of the selling of handmade items and the weekly dues happens during the same week or the same magazine volume number. I am trying to write a query that will pull both of the sales as well as the weekly dues payments weather they have paid or not.
SELECT foiid, trim(concat(name.fname,' ',name.lname)) AS no_ns, nspayamt, DATE_FORMAT(nspaydate, '%m/%d/%Y') FROM name LEFT JOIN nspay ON nspayfoiid = foiid and volume = '27' WHERE nspayfoiid is null AND type = 'Registered' AND city = 'richmond' AND status = 'a' group by foiid ORDER BY no_ns
This code will bring up the following names of those who did not pay weekly dues during volume 2:
Christopher Gabb
Michael banks
Timothy Hardin
However there is another table I wish to call the same Individuals who sold magazine during the same week of volume 27
SELECT trim(CONCAT(name.fname,' ',name.lname))AS Sold,
round(sum(fcnsales.salesamt)) as TOTAL_Mags_SOLD FROM name, fcnsales WHERE fcnsales.salesfoiid = name.foiid
AND fcnsales.salesvolume '27' GROUP BY name.foiid ORDER BY TOTAL_mags_SOLD desc;
This above code produces the following results:
Sold                             TOTAL_Mags_SOLD
Christopher Gabb        50
Michael banks             36
Timothy Hardin           12
I would like to combine the two queries to produce the following
Sold                             TOTAL_Mags_SOLD   nspayamt
Christopher Gabb          50                                none
Michael banks               36                                none
Timothy Hardin            12                               none
can anyone give me a direction to go to?

Regexp_replace can be avoided and replaced by translate there if you know for sure what characters you are expecting.

How to delete the matching records from two internal tables

Hi ,
I have two internal tables say A and B of the same type. If A has 10 records and B has 4 records , I want to delete the 4 records in B from A .
loop at B into wa .
delete A where key = wa - key .
endloop.
takes a long time if the table B is huge. how can I improve the performance.
Thanks.
Gayathri

Hi Gayathri,
You could try field-symbols. It reduces the data transfer from the internal table B to the work area.
field-symbols <fs_itab_b> like line of B.
loop at B assigning <fs_itab_b>.
delete A where key = <fs_itab_b>?-key.
endloop.

Possible Noob Question: Correcting Colors From Cheap Digital Camera

I'm somewhat embarrassed to ask this here, but ya gotta start some place.
I'm a web dev so forgive my ignorance. I work with photos a lot, but they've always come to me from people who know what they're doing. I don't really understand digital -photography- that well---which is quite different I realise than film.
Anyhoo, I'm trying to get better colors from a pocket digital camera (Canon Elf 310) which (supposedly) has 12MP. The pictures I want to take for the job I have in mind involve clouds and landscapes and I gotta take a pocket came because we're camping/fishing.
Anyway, they -could- be very cool but the tests I've done show that the colors are going to be just -wrong-. And by 'wrong' I mean everything either seems -under- saturated or hyper-statured. For example... the subtle pinks in clouds are rendered as washed out or will be overly contrasty (hyper) yellow to orange.
The detail is quite sharp, however so does that mean there's something 'there' there which can be properly corrected? And if so, how?
If it's too wordy, perhaps maybe someone can just recommend a good text on the subject?
TIA,
---JC

I completely agree with Mylenium.
Beyond working with the various Tools in PS, for "Color Correction," I would start with a properly calibrated monitor, so that you know that what you are "correcting," is the Image, and not the monitor.
Next, familiarization with those Tools, such as Hue/Saturation, will be very useful. The Help file can get you started, by defining what each Tool can do, and a short-course on how it does it.
I would always work with non-destructive techniques, so that one can always go back and re-edit things. For that Hue/Saturation, mentioned above, I would use a Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer. Same for Color Balance, and the rest.
Last, you eye should be your guide, on that calibrated monitor. Adjust, until you get what YOU like (or what your client likes). Remember that by default, most of those "corrections" will be "global" for the Image, BUT with Layer Masks, you can restrict/constrain the corrections to just certain areas of that Image. At that point, knowing about the various Masking techniques will be very helpful. Besides the Help file, there are many useful tutorials on various Masking techniques, and many will apply to Layer Masks.
Also be aware that different camera sensors might bias differently, and also with lower-resolution Images, you will likely not have a great deal of Dynamic Range to work with. Start with the best possible, from your camera. If possible, shoot in Camera RAW, and use the "processing" power of ACR (Adobe Camera RAW), to get started. You should be able to create a Preset for your camera (maybe shoot a McBeth Color Checker card, and calibrate that), to get that processing started.
Good luck,
Hunt

Maintaining Custom Colors from FrameMaker to the PDF

I tried posting this question under the "Color Management" forum, but got a lot of questions asking what printer, paper, and other settings I'm using...not really what I'm looking for...
Here is my original post:
I am having problems with my company's custom logo colors appearing in the PDF correctly. I created two color definitions in FrameMaker 10 (using colors Pantone 485 CVC and Pantone 281 CVC). These colors are mostly used for diagram callouts. Instead of printing these colors that I added, the default red and blue colors appear in the PDF.
I recently upgraded to Distiller X and Acrobat Professional X, thinking that maybe the older versions just didn't support those colors, and I am still getting the same result. FrameMaker is using the CMYK model.
I have a feeling that I just need to adjust some settings, but I don't know whether to adjust Distiller, Acrobat, or FrameMaker. Anyone else have issues when trying to use their company's colors? Any ideas on what might work? I don't think the problem is my screen settings because when I compare the Frame file with the PDF, the difference is obvious.
Thanks in advance,
Smitty

What is your CMYK color space (e.g. some SWOP)?
How are you creating the PDF?
Save-as, print-to, or Distill from .ps
Distill has a separate issue.
What is the delivery flow?
Do you need color-matching at a print shop,
or just in the PDF?
How are the logo colors coming in?
If they are from CMYK EPS, for example, they should survive the Windows GDI experience.
If any of your custom colors are text (not graphics), that's a more involved problem.
The fundamental problems you're facing are:
1. Frame has no color management; never will.
2. Windows had no CMYK for years, and now has a destructive fake CMYK.
There are usually work-arounds, 3rd party in extreme cases.

Why won't my hp photosmart premium all-in-one printer - c309g print in color from my macbook air?

It prints from a Dell laptop and a Tobshiba laptop but not from my Mac

Hello,
Thanks for the post. We may have a couple of issues here, were you able to sucessfully download and install the drivers on your system? Are you using the correct printer in your print and fax? Since you can print color sucessfully from two other PC's, I would suspect a setting on your MAC. I've included a link below where you can download the drivers for this product. Good Luck!

Book Module Lightroom 4 -- can I use a color picker to pick a color from a photo to use as the backg

I am trying to match a background color for a page in a Blurb book using the Lightroom 4 Book Module. Is there any way I can use the color picker to pick a color from the photo to use as the color for the background and as the type color? I see the color box for these situations, but the color picker only seems to work with the color array that pops up and doesn't go to the photo. Any suggestions? Am I overlooking something very obvious?

It works for me.
The usual Lightroom way: click the eyedropper onto the color palette first, then hold and drag to your photo to sample color.

Does anyone know how to help me get my Macbook Pro to print to my HP Officejet 6600 in color? I am new to MAC computers and am sure it's just a setting I need to change. I know it is not a printer problem as it prints color from the same webpage from my PC desktop. Thanks.

bamajim,
Here is a link to a page for your printer that may help with your issue.
The document provides steps to troubleshoot printouts that do not match the screen while printing from the web.
Does this also happen when printing graphics from somewhere other than the web ?
Once you give these steps a try let us know what happens.

Suddenly unable to print in color from photoshop

Just put in new print cartridges (both b&w and color) in my HP officejet printer and I suddenly can't print color from photoshop. I'm using a mac os x 10.8.
I seem to be able to print color from other sources such as directly from the internet, or from preview. When I go to Print in photoshop if I try to select Color Matching ColorSynch and Vendor Matching are greyed out and unselectable. Not that I ever had to go there before but that seems to be the only difference between the print dialog boxes in photoshop and the other sources.

You should contact Microsoft for Mac Support and/or post in their forums.

Is it possible to only install Color from the FCS3 suite?

Is it possible to only install Color from the FCS3 suite? If so, what is the correct procedure?
thanks

I'm not sure whether you can install it on its own or whether you will need FCP as well.
Open the installer, go through it and you will come to a page where every app and its media is listed.
Deselect everything except Color and continue with the installation.
If it refuses you will have to go back and select FCP as well.

Robot.getPixelColor() will work fine, but the problem you will have is getting the mouse set to the correct location and getting your application to know where it is: you can do it with win32 calls and JNI. Here are a few that I have found helpful--they are in a VB format:

I am wanting to exactly match two ID numbers from two differing worksheets within one work book. Once matched I am wanting to retrieve a row value from the second worksheet into the first. Any help much appreciated.

I am wanting to exactly match two ID numbers from two worksheets within the one work book. ID numbers are non linear. Once exactly matched I wish to retrieve a corresponding row value from worksheet two and have it appear in worksheet one against the correct ID number. I have been looking at IF, VLOOKUP, and MATCH functions and suspect that what I want to do requires a combination of two or more. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
regards Vaughanh

Vaughan,
Data A:D is all cells start at column A thru column D.
There is built-in help using the menu item "View > Show Function Browser" in the search field (top right) you can enter vlookup and you will see the detailed description.
From this we see:
VLOOKUP
(search-for, columns-range, return-column, close-match)
search-for: The value to find. search-value can contain any value type.
columns-range: A range of cells. range is a reference to a single range of cells, which may contain values of any type.
return-column: A number that specifies the relative column number of the cell from which to return the value. return-column is a number value. The leftmost column in the range is column 1.
close-match: An optional value that determines whether an exact match is required.
close match (TRUE, 1, or omitted): If there’s no exact match, select the column with the largest top-row value that is less than the search value. Wildcards can’t be used in search-for.
exact match (FALSE or 0): If there’s no exact match, return an error. Wildcards can be used in search-for.
So... the 2,0 means return the value form the same row as the lookup value but from the 2nd column of the range. 3, 0 means from the 3rd column. the ", 0" means exact match
