Kevin Osborn of Outside-In Photography presented "Techniques for Optimizing Near UV Images in Photoshop CS3" at the Ultraviolet Imaging Symposium October 4, 2008 at Brooks Photography Institute. The paper shows a methodology for evaluating camera performance for UV images and processing these images in Photoshop.

The issues considered:

• Biggest problem is getting a pure near UV image. Easy to get near IR signal pollution. What can we do about it?
• UV signal gets spread amongst the RGB channels due to the Bayer filter array. How to make the best monochromatic UV image from this data.
