Camera Calibration for Sony A500

When I go into the camera calibration for shots taken with my Sony A500, the *only* thing that appears in the profile drop-down is "Adobe Standard".  Does that mean that there isn't a profile available for the A500?

" the fact that there aren't other profiles simply means that Adobe has not created other profiles that simulate in-camera rendering styles for your camera model."
So can anyone confirm that these in-camera rendering styles / profiles are not available for the A500?
And in general, if you haven't bought a Canon or Nikon, should you just expect that LR doesn't love you as much?

  • Camera raw for Sony A7

    I havw Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and need update camera raw for Sony A7? Where can I find it?

    Support for the A7 was added in the latest version of Camera Raw 8.3 back in December.  Adobe only updates shipping products so you’d need to upgrade to PSE12:

    An alternative is to use the free Adobe DNG Converter to create DNGs from your ARWs, one folder at a time.  The DNGs will have the added information that older versions of the ACR plug-in need to open the files.
    You can find the DNG Converter on the general Adobe updates page:

  • Camera profiles for Sony A700

    Hi,
    I'm working in CS4 (Mac) and I downloaded the latest camera raw 5.6. I have only the Adobe standard, ACR 4.4 and ACR 3.5 in the Camera Calibration -Camera Profile.
    I don't see special camera profiles for my Sony A700. In tutorials they showed profiles for Canon or Nikon. How can I get the profiles for the A700? Do they exist?
    Thanks a lot
    Claudine

    Hi Claudine,
    At the moment these are the only profiles made by Adobe for the A700. You can build your own profiles (or edit existing profiles) using the free DNG Profile Editor, if you wish. Another solution for a custom profile is the ColorChecker Passport, from X-Rite.

  • Can i use the lightning to usb camera adapter for sony cybershotdsc-w380

    DDoes anyone know how to use a lightning to sub camera adapter for a Sony cyber shot doc-w830

    This discussion may help.
    It mostly depends on the camera. Some cameras have a Transfer Mode, which does not attempt to charge while transferring pictures. does yours have such a setting?
    Alternatively you can try to plug a powered USB hub between the camera and the USB connector so the power is provided by the HUB rather than the iPad.
    Other than that, yes the Memory card reader may be a better option assuming your Camera uses Secure Digital (SD) type memory cards.

  • What is "Camera Calibration" for?

    What is "Camera Calibration" in Camera Raw? Is it for making adjustments to digital cameras to render more accurate color in Camera Raw? Or just for fine-tune RAW images?

    because we live in a real world where there are no two things exactly the same and this also includes cameras of course. The profiles are a good starting point but if you find that they don't quite work and get constant blue tinting for instance then you can set those sliders to correct the problem inside the camera. The process usually involves photographing a color chart and then trying to match the colors on screen with the actual numbers

  • Camera raw for sony alpha 7 and PS 5

    HI
    I am an amateur photographer and am very happy in my little PS5 world.  I do not want to commit to PS6 and the CC and a lifetime of fees.  I am, unfortunately, thinking about getting the sony alpha 7.  It is unclear to me if camera raw 6.7 will support it.  I have read 2 different answers on the internet
    I love camera raw in PS. If I can't open these images in PS, can I do it in lightroom?  Does lightroom have a nice camera raw?  (I am using camera raw 6.3 and it is wonderful.)
    Is there any easy answer for a very casual photographer who cannot justify the cost of monthly program fees?
    thanks!

    The Alpha 7 wasn't supported until Camera Raw 8.3 at the end of last year. ACR 8.3 only works in CS6/CC.
    I recommend using the latest available version of Camera Raw for each version of CS, which in your case (CS5) is 6.7.1. The latest versions are usually the best, fixing the most bugs and containing refinements missing from earlier versions.
    The cheapest way to carry on with CS5 is to download Adobe DNG Converter, and batch-convert folders of your Alpha files to DNG. It's an extra step after downloading your images, but it's free.
    Camera Raw 6.7.1 and DNG Converter 8.6 are both available from the downloads section of the Adobe website. Please note that you may need DNG Converter 8.3 if you are still running CS5 on XP/Vista or (Snow-) Leopard.
    Photoshop Lightroom is designed by the same team which writes Camera Raw and uses very similar programming. Consequently, it works in a similar way to Camera Raw (with Bridge) and is updated at the same time—following its version numbering by a increment of 3 (currently Lightroom 5.6). You could buy Lightroom and use it to import and convert your raw files without using DNG Converter and Camera Raw. It's a Marmite thing: some people love it, some don't. You can probably download a free trial and find out for yourself. Once you have converted your images in Lightroom, you can export them to Photoshop CS5 for editing.

  • Current Lightroom / Camera Raw Camera Profile for Sony ILCE-6000 inaccurate: green cast in shadows! Capture one better! Please fix it!

    Hi folks from Adobe!
    Please take note that the current Lightroom / Adobe Camera Raw Camera Profile for the Sony ILCE-6000 is very inaccurate: There is a serious green cast in the shadows!
    Capture One Express for Sony (which is free by the way) renders a lot more correctly!
    Please correct this, since I'd rather buy the coming LR6 because of keeping my established workflow instead of going the Capture One route.
    A good example can be found in the dpreview forum "LR5 A6K shadow pulling, a mess! Adobe LR is broken? "
    Or search for Philp Reeves 3 weeks with the Sony A6000 review "3 Wochen mit der a6000", where he compares it to the Sony A7, using both times Lightroom to push the shadows.
    The Sony A7 is fine where earth looks like brown earth, the A6000 picture looks like grass instead.
    Please fix this! This is a high volume camera frequently bought by enthusiast or as second body for FF photographers. That would be really great!

    I am talking about the two raw files linked in the very last post of page 6 of the Reeves comparison thread, not JPGs or screenshots of unknown manipulation.  In LR they both say f/11 and ISO 100 and have a similar tone, but one is shot at twice the shutter speed as the other.  This side-by-side is using Adobe Factory Defaults for each image where the profile is Adobe Standard, the toning sliders are all 0, tone-curve linear, and the Sharpening and Color NR are 25:
    However, when I look at the camera-embedded JPGs, side-by-side, the 1/80th image on the left is darker than the 1/40th image on the right, as expected given the reported shutter-speed difference:
    And it is indeed the darker image that has more shadow problems, also as expected.
    When I do manipulate the darker (a6000) raw file in LR, I do see that the shadows are greenish when brightened unlike most other cameras which usually show magenta, which is the combination of the blue and red sensors showing more noise because there are half-as-many photosites as compared to the green, so I am seeing what people are complaining about and would expect shadow noise to be purple not green, I'm more concerned that these two example raws aren't actually comparable due to apparent differences in exposure.  It is also odd that the lens listed in LR is different than the lens listed in the filename, so either someone has mistakenly or deliberately renamed the file wrong or someone or something has changed the EXIF parameters that LR is reporting to be the same when they're really not.

  • Camera Calibration for Nikon

    In am a Nikon shooter.  Along with Adobe Standard, the Nikon Picture Control names are listed in the drop-down box for LR camera calibration presets.  When I select one of the Nikon Picture Control names for camera calibration, I'd like to understand if LR is only applying the settings which appear in Camera Calibration screen (shadow tint, and the R, G, and B hue and saturation), or is LR somehow also applying any of the other Develop settings associated with the Nikon Picture Control (sharpening, contrast, brightness)?   I understand that I could change sharpening, contrast and brightness using Develop presets, but I'd like to understand whats going on the Lightroom calibration area first so that I do not overdo or duplicate the edits.

    The camera profiles also contain a tone curve.

  • Camera Calibration "Fors script in PS Cs

    I have done a calibration using the Gretagmacbeth Color chart,for each of my Olympus cameras E300 and E20 which are supported by ACR 2.4 in PS CS using the Fors ACR calibration script. The profiles have not been updated since that version and show as such in Lightroom.
    The results have been input in the Lightroom Camera Calibration settings, as recommended in the Lightroom book by Martin Evening, and I am happy with improvement this has provided to the color rendition of my raw files.
    However I am wondering if another calibration is run with the script using PS CS3 if the result will be different and improved? Any help would be appreciated.

    I doubt there would be any difference, except that if you are running CS3 on a latest Intel processors you should see a significant reduction in processing times. One thing that was pointed out to me is that if you have the calibration settings stored in the xmp metadata from a file editied in Photoshop, it is easier to just create a new calibrate setting for Lightroom from the imported file.

  • Camera Calibration for photos in photoshop, Help!

    Hello,
    I just did a great shoot and the images came out great! but for some reason when I open them in Cs4 they look "dry" and unsaturated. When I view them in Bridge they look awesome as well as on my camera's screen. I shot in raw using my camera's vivid setting. It seems that both my camea's screen and Bridge honor the vivid setting but photoshot does not! How can I load a camera vivid color calibration setting onto photoshop so that my images come out as intended??
    thanks for any help!

    I too like my Camera Raw images to match my camera JPEGs, but you'll find that many folks will criticize you for wanting that.  They can go pound sand.  It's no sin to like the color your camera produces.
    First rule of thumb is this:  Photoshop does not read your camera "style" settings, nor does Adobe make a particularly strong effort to match the colors your camera produces.
    That doesn't mean you can't get your starting point for raw conversions closer than what you're getting now, with your favorite set of camera settings.
    What I ended up doing to accomplish that was this:
    Took some images in raw mode with my favorite default camera settings.
    Dragged the images into Camera Raw.
    Also opened the embedded JPEGs using a viewer application.
    Selected the Camera Standard profile in the Camera Calibration section of Camera Raw, which usually gets you to a closer starting point than the normal Adobe default.
    I then tweaked the settings in the HSL / Grayscale section and a few other places so that my viewer-based images and my Camera Raw previews visually matched very well.
    Saved the settings as Camera Raw Defaults.
    Now, when I open a raw file, the default settings start out so that my images look virtually identical to my camera JPEGs.
    Best of luck getting there.

  • Camera Calibration - Fors script.

    Many months ago I ran the "Fors Script" in PS CS to obtain calibration for my Olympus E300 (support was provided for this camera in ACR 2.4) and this has worked well for me in Lightroom.
    I recently purchased an Olympus E510 (support provided in ACR 4.3.1) and need to produce calibration settings for this camera.
    a. Is it necessary/important that the script be run in PS CS3 bearing in mind that LR/ACR 4.4.1 has updated camera profiles?.
    b. Would I get the same result if I converted the .orf to .dng with the latest dng converter and run the script in PS CS?.
    c. Is it advisable to run a new calibration for the E300?.

    a & b) I would simply convert E-510 ORF to DNG and calibrate with CS. How well it works needs to be evaluated by you, but it should be possible.
    c) I don't see a need to calibrate the E-300 again. That is and maybe I don't understand your question, but how would running the cal again be different?
    How well CS/ACR2 works with the Fors script relative to the current ACR version is the unanswered question.

  • Camera Calibration for D610

    I'm using Nikon D610 and I shoot in RAW files. However, when I import my files using Lightroom and when I wanted to change the camera profile under the camera calibration tab, I could only find those profiles of Adobe standard, camera standard etc. What should I do so that I could choose the profile for Nikon D610 standard etc...?

    Each and every camera model supported by LR / ACR will have an Adobe Standard profile which is created specifically for the camera model.
    The camera profiles you are seeing when you have a raw file from your Nikon D610 are specific to that camera. Its just the Adobe naming convention.

  • Generate a camera LUT for Sony FS7

    If anyone knows how to generate a 17x17 or 33x33 .cube camera LUT for a Sony FS7 directly from the Timeline that would be stellar.  Or if you know how to do this from Speedgrade lmk.  I am hoping not to have to buy Red Giant's LUT buddy.

    Send the sequence over to SpeedGrade via Direct Link.  Do what you need to do as far as effects and color go.  You can then save those out as a LUT, including .cube format.  (Though I'm not at all familiar with the 17x17 part.)

  • Convert Fujifilm Classic Chrome camera calibration for X-T1 to X-E2?

    I have an X-E2 that has the Classic Chrome calibration profile with the new Fuji 3.0.0 firmware.
    However, Lightroom 5.7 doesn't recognize that change, even though it does activate for the X-T1.
    Is there a way to extract or convert the X-T1's profile and adapt or rename it to work with the X-E2 when working with RAW RAF files, rather than with the in-camera JPGs?
    Alternately, is Adobe planning on enabling the Classic Chrome profile for the X-E2 since it has that profile in the new firmware?
    Thanks.

    The latest version of LR which is 5.7.1 was released Dec 15th with functionality finalized sometime before then.  The X-E2 firmware that includes Classic Chrome was released Dec 18th.  These camera-match profiles that simulate Fuji shooting modes, while not supplied as external .dcp files like other Adobe camera-match profiles, are still created by Adobe and coded into the software, and there's no way LR could duplicate something that Fuji released several days later.
    The good news, or at least hope for LR users, is that Adobe's Camera Raw 8.8 plug-in for Photoshop does include the Classic Chrome profile as a selection for the X-E2, so Adobe has figured out how to do it:
    The bad news is that there hasn't been a LR 5.8 to match the ACR 8.8 plug-in.
    I believe this is because Adobe never intended to have even an ACR 8.8 but released it so people with the new E-M5 Mark II could work with their camera's raw files.  Getting a plug-in release ready is much easier than an entire LR program so I doubt Adobe will release a LR 5.8 and will go straight to LR 6, unless LR 6 is delayed for several more months.  From what I'd guess, there isn't a LR 5.x team that is independent of the LR 6 team, so if Adobe stopped work on LR 6 to push out a LR 5.8, that would delay LR 6 even further into the future, and there may be some hard date, like an international photography conference, somewhere, that Adobe wants to announce LR 6 at so they can't afford to delay it longer than it already has been.
    Photoshop is paid for on a monthly basis, now, so announcements about what's new aren't as important as LR, which is still available as a standalone upgrade, so adding new features will generate more revenue for Adobe and the time to announce those new features will generate more buzz at some times of year than others.
