DNG Profile Editor, tone curve - question

How to get rid of the "shadow hump" with the default Camera Raw tone curve?

When you create custom profiles with the DNG Profile Editor (Chart Wizard), I usually choose 'Default Camera Raw' or 'Linear' as the base tone curve in the tone curve tab.

Profiles with "linear tone curve" can sometimes be useful or not. which isn't the point here, however, the initial rendering in Camera Raw in Camera Raw default (as delivered, except different profile) is quite dark and dull. While the profiles with the default Camera Raw tone curve are too contrasty for my taste, still referring to the initial rendering in Camera Raw in Camera Raw default (as delivered, except different profile).

What I understand, the curve tonal Camera Raw default includes 3 items which, in terms of language PV2010, are equivalent to: 50 brightness, contrast curve and 25 points: medium contrast. PV2013 it shows as zero/linear, however, it's just a matter of terminology.

I want to get rid of the average curve Point contrast part, not in the profile, eliminating the gross default camera tone curve in the DNG Profile Editor format.

Appreciate your advice how to proceed.

Peter

  • In DNG Profile Editor tone curve

    Is it possible to load a curve Point of Adobe Camera RAW in the DNG profile editor as atone curve?

  • Where the DNG profile editor should install the .dcp file?

    Just made my first attempt to create a profile using X-Rite color checker passport and the DNG Profile Editor.

    Thanks to the excellent tutorial, the process went well.  Then, I took the last step of the export of the profile file (.dcp), expecting to find the new profile, when I open an image in ACR.  Unfortunately, the new profile did not appear in the drop down camera profile.

    After much research I discovered that the profile was written in the folder containing the images of .dng used to build the profile.  Obviously not where he belongs so that ACR to find.   I assumed that 'Export profile' will automatically write the .dcp file to the appropriate location.

    Where the .dcp files should be installed for Win7x64 running ACR, 8.2. ?

    Is there a way to set the default location in the profile editor?

    Thanks for your help.

    Custom designed. Profile of DCP files enter the following under your Windows user folder location:

    C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles

    The AppData folder is a hidden system folder, you may need to enable the display of these types of files in your Explorer folder or any type \AppData display options in the folder address box and press ENTER once you get in your user name folder.

    This is as far as I'm away. I was not able use this profile in ACR camera Calibration tab. I was led to believe it is displayed automatically. I found no video tutorials related to the cab and the installation of camera profiles. They all seem to relate to Lightroom.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • DNG Profile Editor is compatible with the CS3 version

    I work with PS CS3 and I have a new camera - Sony NEX 5N. I'd love to upgrade the PS, but for now I can't afford to. Convert my NEX to the raw files to DNG using the latest version of the converter. I think now I would create my own profile to the camera. Previously, I used the script Thomas Fors, but I understand that the DNG EP is preferable. Am I right in thinking that pulling a chart by using the graphic tab that is able to do that and it will work for CS3 and MacBeth and the NEX - 5n.

    A related issue, converter DNG already apply a created specific Adobe color profile for the NEX - 5N under the 'Standard' option in ACR, for all I'm trying to do is change the profile of Adobe?

    Thanks for any help

    Yes.  Profiles with DNG EP will work under Camera Raw 4 in CS3.  You just need to be sure that you have at least ACR version 4.5.

  • Camera tone curves, exposure and saturation profiles

    I use a home made camera profile, since the DNG Profile Editor was released. I much prefer the colors made by using a profile of a ColorChecker card for the provided profiles.

    My first profile was based on a photo taken using Adobe Standard, but I didn't like how the lighter tones looked washed out. So I created a curve custom in DNGPE, with a small dip in the upper half of the diagonal. Makes the lighter tones to colours .

    A few months later, I created a new curve point by default, with less of a boost in the light. This helped with detail in the sky .

    Recently, I realized that I'm adjusting the brightness slider a lot, and I realized that it is because the tone of my profile adjustment decreases the brightness of the mi-teintes. So, instead of setting the default to 60, I created another profile, with a tone adjustment higher in the medium and lower tones in lighter tones. Better default , but I am not satisfied by the lighter tones still .

    I think now, exposure down to about 1/3 tab to bring the color back in the faces of the people. I use a Nikon D300, and some people say that it tends to overexpose a little, but I'm shooting raw, and I would have not thought that it was a problem when it's not clipping.

    I use a default value of contrast of 25 and the average contrast curve points. When I slide the exposure down, I can see the histogram (ProPhoto) "no - bunching" at the upper end, and it seems to fit with the color back into the cheeks of the people.

    Help. I'm confused. Camera raw does something with a saturation at the top of the tone curve?

    Hi Yammer P, you cannot add an exhibition shifted on a profile directly, but as you know, you can have a + or - exposure correction built into a default by the camera, or a preset.

    On the other hand, pouvez have you a profile-specific tone curve. For example, in the DNG Profile Editor, you can use the second pane to change tone of a profile curve. So if the default highlights are a little light to your liking, you can change the profile curve to bring them down a bit. Then save the new profile.

    I understand what you're saying want to add a lighter areas overrun without the darker image overall. We do not have a control that does this directly, while others like the Saturation can help (as you discovered) if used moderately.

  • Picture of Cannon to the DNG profile style?

    Hello

    Is there a way to get the "color map" in the style of a Canon photo and use it to create a DNG profile, perhaps via the DNG Profile Editor or ColorChecker Passport?

    I don't see any information about how to extract the transformations of colors of files for Canon Picture Style, in order to be able to pass this info to a DNG profile. Maybe I missed something?

    I often see comments where people want Lightroom treats to bring to simulate specific processing in the camera, but I still don't understand the idea here. The way the camera and Lightroom, converts raw data into an image are just different [as different as a piano or a violin playing the same piece of music] and to help each other with determination its own forces and in its own way, by the results, seems 100% fine and appropriate.

    DNG profile is a feature of Adobe and modifies the action of Adobe and treatment adjustments. A photo Style is a feature of Canon and modifies the action of Canon image processing. The controls, functions and the results of a should never to map 1:1 exactly on the other... especially because it owns / patented, or difficult or expensive to reverse engineering. More importantly: even if it were possible, writing code to simulate the actual processing of a particular camera is AFAIK a disruptive unrealistic task to implement in existing software. And Lightroom takes care of dozens of cameras.

    [There are some stylistic things, you can do it on a violin that mimic specific ways to play a piano, and vice versa. But the scope of this mimicry is limited by the specific features of each instrument, playing then use his head and imagination. There is no pedal on a violin - there is no vibrato on a piano. And that's as it should be. [This is the way you play any instrument you use, regarding the piece of music, what counts.]

    I don't want to appear negative about your question, but rather encourage you to look beyond the options as the unit can provide. More positively, Lightroom gives rich controls the course of color

    • Basic Panel - temp of the White Balance and hue, saturation and vibrance
    • selection of a DNG profile (such as generated by program and/or as twisted in the DNG Profile Editor)
    • Tone curve - there is a curve point RGB option
    • Hue Saturation and Luminance Panel - change of hue, lum and sat for 8 sectors of hue
    • Process version
    • Manual camera - tinted shadow calibration Panel sliders, separate them primary color RGB and Sam

    The DNG Profile Editor format and the camera Calibration Panel seem to offer the best chance to achieve a given glance answer dyed through many images. The Panel of LGV is probably more appropriate to individualize a given image. A DNG shooting natively capable camera may also include a color profile "Embedded" captured in each file that encapsulates the response information of color of the camera in some respects.

    Quite often a particular camera picture style includes contrastiness and your aspects in addition to the color response curve - which for Lightroom, will involve some other controls as well as those mentioned above. That can all be wrapped up in a preset to develop a single click - or amended LR treatment of default values - to facilitate enforcement in the future.

  • 5DS (r) tone curve in LR and ACR: crushed shadows with all profiles

    Hello

    When Adobe released LR CC with what seemed at the time as a preliminary treatment of 5DS (r) Canon files, I noticed that the tone curve with all profiles (Adobe standard or brand profiles) seems to produce shadows much darker than all the other Canon cameras. It's something that dpreview noticed too:

    "In addition, comparisons are slightly complicated by the aggressive tone curve that ACR applies to files R 5DS crushing its blacks, and potentially reduce visible noise levels by making them darker. We anticipate a later version of ACR to solve this problem, how reprocess us and return on these results.

    Hi KB_GenMtrs,

    I have a few questions about your request:

    (1) what NIVS version do you use? What version of NIVS where clips and profiles created?

    (2) can create a new sequence of RT or profile without crashing?

    (3) the profile editor of Stimulus crash when opening a specific sequence or profile? If so, can point out you if I try to open it on my side to test if it's recreatable?

    I look forward to your reply.
