A process for transforming digital source image data to provide a desired image look at the end of an imaging step chain is described comprising: defining desired values for at least two image look parameters associated with the desired image look; sensing the values of the defined image look parameters for the digital source image data; and modifying the digital source image data to provide digital output image data with at least one image look parameter value closer to the defined image look parameter value associated with the desired image look. In accordance with preferred embodiments, the desired image look parameters may be defined with respect to an image to be displayed after further processing of the digital output image data downstream of the modifying step, information may be provided on the characteristics of the downstream processing, and the modifying step may be designed to compensate for effects of the downstream processing on the desired image look parameters. |
