Lightroom/ACR camera profiles

WIlson - hmm, the software that came with my Optix Pro runs on SL and a new 27" iMac just fine. (V. 2.0.3)

 

On the general question of M9 profiles: using the Beta of ACR 5.6, the "Adobe Standard" is the better (and newer) profile. Embedded is what Jenoptik and Leica wrote into the M9 firmware, and leads to pink skin, and is what we had until ACR 5.6 Beta appeared.

 

I'd say the Adobe Standard still needs the usual tweaks in the profiling page - a big cut in blue saturation (like -35 to -50), a smaller cut in red sat., a boost in green sat., and a yellow hue shift to reds. But I won't bother with making them using a ColorChecker until the non-Beta version is available, because it may change yet again.

 

Andy,

 

I wanted the version that would do 2 screens. I had an old Tiger/Panther version that did two screens and an SL compliant version that did one screen. The 2 screen version just says "this software is not compatible with this operating system"

 

I am finding that C1 V5.0.1 Pro is excellent for skin tones with the M9 files.
