Profiles

Hello,

there has been a lot of talk about profiles and I see that it is something very important for most of you.

Do you know of any place where I can see what types of profiles you use?

I've searched the forum to see if there were examples and I haven't seen anything.

 

thanks

The profiles meant are in the raw develop stage of your postprocessing software. You can view them there on your own images.

I think I explained myself very poorly because of my English.
I was referring to the fact that many of you have saved user profiles, the machine brings the Default and then we can save up to six more, those are the profiles I am referring to...

I would like to know what types of profiles people use and why so understand more.

I created one looking for Leica black and white, although I haven't found it.

On my SL2-S I have

• My Default: A-mode, Auto WB, AutoISO, Single Shot, iAF, Hybrid Shutter. This is for most photography, and what I use when I'm in a hurry.
• Burst: S-mode, WB 4000k, 6fps? (I can't remember exactly - the fastest rate with the mechanical shutter anyway); otherwise as My Default. For dance and fast movement in theatre lighting.
• Flash: M-mode, ISO 100, Flash WB, otherwise as My Default. For portraits etc.
• Video C4K: I can't remember the detail, but it is the equivalent to My Default for video.
• Silent: WB 4000K, electronic shutter, otherwise as My Default. For live performances under stage lighting.
• M lenses: as My Default, but with EVF focus magnification on the rear dial instead of Exposure Compensation.

They are profiles with a lot of logic

Ah - I see. They are just your preferred settings which you store. That will obviously vary by your preferences and usage.
