  <title>How do I calibrate my camera?</title>

  <p>
    Camera devices are calibrated by taking a photograph of a target
    under the desired lighting conditions.
    By converting the RAW file to a TIFF file, it can be used to
    calibrate the camera device in the color control panel.
  </p>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>
      The resulting profile is only valid under the lighting condition
      that you acquired the original image from.
      This means you might need to profile several times for
      <em>studio</em>, <em>bright sunlight</em> and <em>cloudy</em>
      lighting conditions.
