Taking photographs over a day will almost need different camera profiles in case of changing locations and light situations. Therefore it will be convinient to have a workflow that matches all images of each certain light situation (task) with their camera profile automatically. Short explanation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q89NW8jtn_8&feature=related More detailed explanation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_m44L8o2Fwk But this (LR)workflow isn't as convinient as it could be and the profiling program is only available for Windows and OS-X. And, why this few manually clicks? Only the (man readable) naming of the metadata template is needed. Here a possible automated workflow. To assign the images to the right profile you need to tag the colortarget photo first (e.g. the first image of the task subdirectory - canon105, canon106, ..., or - if no subdirectories possible - the target images can determined by its "Date and Time" Exif-Tag. At the point of import into digikam its necessary to create a profile (via lprof ?) and then create a new metadata template, which will be assigned to the followed images as long as the next colortarget image is detected or the last image has been processed.
