Lelmer Posted July 30 Share #21 Posted July 30 Advertisement (gone after registration) Difficult to choose, but I'd say I have a slight preference for the OOC ones. They look very natural and probably depict the reality better, but you are the only one who can judge that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since your photos are not the kind I would take for myself (that's not a criticism), I can't easily decide which is better - it's entirely your choice AFAIC. THIS!!! I print my photos the way I see them. If someone doesn't feel they are right by their standards...then they can go out, shoot the scene and Photoshop it however they want. Photography is subjective...I don't have to see things the way you think the should be seen. End of rant. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look very natural and probably depict the reality better, but you are the only one who can judge that. That's where I'm leaning. I think the files from my latest Leica cameras produce very natural colours. A bit of contrast increase is all I'd be inclined to do with many of them. Often with my colour images, I'm finding the more adjustments I make the more unnatural they look. It's a different story with b&w. I agree with Jeff on that point. If course, there aren't many subjects we photograph that are b&w in reality so we aren't trying to make those images true to life. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidzvi Posted August 17 Share #25 Posted August 17 I've been pretty happy with SOOC camera images from the D-Lux 8. My only issue is that I'm used to the SOOC JPEG and RAW looking pretty close to each other in Lightroom. But with the D-Lux 8, they look totally different.

The default profile offered in LR is Adobe Color (Adobe Standard in old versions), meaning Adobe's idea of how colors should look like. But it's the profile embedded in the DNG that reflects the camera manufacturer's idea and this may be much nearer the colors of OOC JPGs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'll acknowledge I could be doing something wrong. DNGs + JPEGs First image (ending in 925) shot in STD, the only edit was to select the embedded profile. Second image (929) shot in Mono HC, obviously, the embedded profile is not mono Third Image, I have been playing with editing and importing profiles. The Mono HC from the D-Lux 7 is a bit higher contrast; it's a place to start. Welcome, dear visitor!

I'm not really seeing why just pressing 'Auto' (sic) in ACR wouldn't sort out the problem without messing about with profiles? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
