wparsonsgisnet Posted January 5, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted January 5, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I just got the JFI b/w profiles from JFI Color Labs (thanks Sean). Â I have loaded them where C1 expects to see them but don't know how to activate them. Â Can anybody give me a quick how-to? Â Thanks in advance, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

j. borger Posted January 5, 2007 Share #2 Â Posted January 5, 2007 Hello Bill, Â - Click on the raw file of the photo you want to convert - select "workflow" in the menu - select "show colormanagement settings" - the window color management settings pops-up ..... select one of the JFI labs profiles in the selection field labeled "Camera" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wparsonsgisnet Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share #3 Â Posted January 5, 2007 Hi J. Thanks for the response. I did as you suggested, but now the picture in the center screen of C1 is locked up. I can't wb, crop, etc. I reset but that didn't help. Â I am confused. Â I'm wandering thru the downloaded manual, now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wparsonsgisnet Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share #4  Posted January 5, 2007 OK, I got it!  Here's my first JFI b/w conversion (not a lot of detail for upload).  Original is RAW, at 2500, 1/250, 24mm f2.8 asph @ 2.8. Simple conversion, no noise reduction or anything else. Welcome, dear visitor!

wparsonsgisnet Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share #5  Posted January 5, 2007 The one above was "std" b/w. this one is Red #1. A little more luminescence in it.  Again JFI b/w profiles, rest as above. Welcome, dear visitor!

j. borger Posted January 5, 2007 Share #6 Â Posted January 5, 2007 Good to see it worked out ......looks good Bill:) I do B&W almost exclusively and this is all i use for B&W ......... red and orange filters will always result in noisier images at high iso.

Â Thanks, J. Â I agree about the noise and I customarily use Neat Image for every digineg. Â I do not, however, use sharpening at this time. As much as I have been able to play with it (what I said about the day job ... ) I still am dissatisfied with the edge artifacts. Â I really like the "roundness" that noise reduction give me. Â And this camera *Really* rocks! Â Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wparsonsgisnet Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share #9 Â Posted January 5, 2007 BTW, the original problem was, of course, Operator Head Space Error. Â I do my own uploading and archiving using directory processes, and I always (what a dangerous word) move the jpeg's to a subdirectory so they don't get mixed up with the RAW's. Â Of course, I blew it. And, I am permitting jpeg's to be seen by C1 -- because it would never (another dangerous word) be a problem. Â When I reoriented the directories properly, the images were, of course, able to be touched. It just took me a while to realize that I could not manipulate a stupid jpeg. Â The beginning of the learning curse is so damn steep! Â My thanks to all, as usual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wparsonsgisnet Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share #10  Posted January 5, 2007 OK! Here's a "chrome" using Jamie's profile. What intensity it lends to the image. There is a palpable presence to the dancers.  Thanks Jamie for providing these profiles.  Thanks J for the suggestions about looking further for the correct profiles. Welcome, dear visitor!

robsteve Posted January 5, 2007 Share #11 Â Posted January 5, 2007 Bill: Â I am a bit confused by your +1 exposure. Does it mean you are adjusting C1 so the exposure is +1 or are you using a +1 exposure compensation in the camera. Â If you are using +1 in C1, you are underexpsoing your shots by a stop and your noise would be much less by dropping the shutter speed one stop.

judybabinski Posted January 6, 2007 Share #12  Posted January 6, 2007 Bill  Can you use the JFI b-w profiles with C1 LE or do you need the C1 Pro version  Thanks Judy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodyspedden Posted January 6, 2007 Share #13  Posted January 6, 2007 Bill Can you use the JFI b-w profiles with C1 LE or do you need the C1 Pro version  Thanks Judy By the way. opnce the JFI profiles are in the proper folder they are available to and work well with Raw Developer as well as C1. The results look very close to each other after processing. This is good news to me because I prefer Raw Developer to C1 in their current incarnations.

wparsonsgisnet Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share #15 Â Posted January 6, 2007 Robert, I am adding 1.0 exposure in C1 Judy, I am using LE. I do plan to buy the pro version, but am getting my feet wet. Â I just worked on a bunch of pictures from this shoot and will now go back and try Jamie's profiles on the shots. Â It turns out to be pretty straightforward, even for this newby to C1. I agree with Sean's and other's statements, it's really intuitive. Â I wish that I could invoke Neat Image from inside. Â I'll post more after working on this shoot this weekend -- with noise reduction, this time. Â Thanks again to all for the assistance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsteve Posted January 6, 2007 Share #16 Â Posted January 6, 2007 Robert, I am adding 1.0 exposure in C1. Â If you are adding a stop in C1, it means you are under exposing, or really shooting a 5000iso. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Roberts Posted January 6, 2007 Share #17 Â Posted January 6, 2007 Bill--I'm happy to know you got the JPEG / C1 / profile step worked out! They're some of the stumbling blocks in C1, which is a wonderful program once you wrap your brain around it! Â Thanks for the kind words on the profile, too. I believe I might even have some new ones soon... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
j. borger Posted January 6, 2007 Share #18 Â Posted January 6, 2007 Thanks for the kind words on the profile, too. I believe I might even have some new ones soon... Looking forward to them Jamie ........ your profiles make all the diference using the M8 for color. Thanks again for all the efforts and sharing the results!

wparsonsgisnet Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share #19 Â Posted January 6, 2007 If you are adding a stop in C1, it means you are under exposing, or really shooting a 5000iso. Â Unfortunately, there is no iso 5000 on the M8, and I need 1/250 for stop-motion. I did not try -EV because I have not yet learned to use it. Â At the time, I only had an IR-cut filter for the 24mm lens -- f2.8 is the fastest. Â Neat Image fixes the grain to my satisfaction. Â This hi-speed digital is not all it's cracked up to be.

robsteve Posted January 6, 2007 Share #20 Â Posted January 6, 2007 This hi-speed digital is not all it's cracked up to be. Â Digital just doesn't like under exposure. Â What size UV-IR filters are you looking for? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
