And most high-end applications, such as modern versions of Adobe Photoshop,
should be capable of reading these tags and putting them to use. But
in the unlikely event that your camera is included in the Device list, and you
have an ICC profile provided by your camera??™s manufacturer, then you can
go ahead and install it just like the others.

Working with
Media
Now, playing with gamma correction and color profiles will only take you
so far. Variations in ink or toner, as well as paper, can all affect color
reproduction on a printer, and the lighting in your room can affect how
color looks on your monitor, so you??™ll have to employ a little trial and error
to get the desired results. Professionals use more sophisticated tools, such as
colorimeters, to get better color matching, not to mention higher-quality
monitors, printers, and scanners. So, don??™t be surprised if you don??™t get perfect
color every time.
Sort Photos Chronologically
Let me guess. You just had this big party (say, a wedding or commitment
ceremony), and you??™ve gotten hundreds of photos from a dozen different
people. But when you stick them all in the same folder and sort them by
date, they??™re all out of order.
The Date Modified column in Windows Explorer (go to View ??? Details if
you don??™t see it) probably won??™t reliably sort your photos.
