A pre-requisite for such a thing would be some way to describe target colours in a device-independent colour space, and Poser only supports RGB, HSL and HSV. It might be possible to do something with math nodes and I'm starting to build one, but it'll be a slow process as I'm learning as I go.
As part of this process, I've produced a ColorChecker prop (which should be familiar to photographers or broadcast TV pros): it loads with sRGB values by default, and there are MC6 materials to apply AdobeRGB values and a greyscale.
As I'm fortunate enough to have a display calibrated to AdobeRGB rather than sRGB, I've found that 'standard' settings for things like Gamma Correction don't quite work for me... the AdobeRGB checker was very useful for helping to get my settings right.
Making these MC6 files is tedious, and I check everything twice (you'd be surprised how many typing errors creep in), but I'll be producing additional MC6 files for AppleRGB and NTSC values, plus PAL if I can find the references.
If you don't know why you'd find these useful, you don't need them. Get them here.
I've spent a long time on Bruce Lindbloom's site to get these as right as possible, worth a look if you're into this sort of thing.
