Canon 40D profile shows as "Camera RGB" instead of "sRGB"

When I open 40D files in Photoshop CS3, I get a profile warning that says "Camera RGB"
Is this normal? I don't recall getting this warning before and I have the 40D set to use sRGB and photoshop working space set to "working space - sRGB IEC1966-2.1"
Thanks for any input on this

This is set in ACR workflow options (the blue link below the main image window).
The camera setting is irrelevant, that only applies to in-camera processed jpegs. A raw file has no color space until it's opened into one in the raw converter.
Stay with sRGB until you know why you want a bigger color space. It has advantages, but also carries risks that can bite you if you don't know what you're doing.

  • Canon 40D Profile?

    I have downloaded and installed Camera Raw 5.2 so now my ACR has been upgraded on CS4, to ACR 5.2.
    My problem is the camera profiles. When I click Camera Calibration, I see
    ACR 4.4
    ACR 4.2
    Adobe Standard
    Adobe Standard Beta 1
    Camera Faithful
    Camera Faithful Beta 1
    Camera Landscape
    Camera Landscape Beta 1
    Camera Neutral
    Camera Neutral Beat 1
    Camera Portrait
    Camera Portrait Beta 1
    Camera Standard
    Camera Standard Beta 1
    I firstly wonder about getting rid of the "Beta" profiles and secondly, wondered if I should see something pertaining to my Canon 40D?

    Bob,
    You don't have a
    problem at all. :)
    First,
    everything
    you see on that list pertains exclusively to the specific camera model that generated the raw file you are opening at any given moment.
    Second, yes, you can delete the old beta profiles. If you're on a Mac, you'll find them in:
    ROOT LEVEL (nameOfYourHardDisk)/ Library/ Application Support/ Adobe/ CameraRaw/ Camera Profiles/ .
    Windows: "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles"

  • IPhoto Changes sRGB IEC61966-2.1 Into Camera RGB Profile

    Hi,
    Has anyone else noticed this? iPhoto '08 seems to automatically alter the ColorSync Profile of any photos you import into it.
    I have a Canon compact camera. Normally the ColorSync Profile in photos it takes shows up as sRGB IEC61966-2.1 in Preview 4.1 However, as soon as they've been imported into iPhoto, their ColorSync Profiles change to Camera RGB Profile.
    Is this normal? How is Camera RGB Profile different to sRGB IEC61966-2.1? I'm worried that iPhoto is/has destroyed useful data in all of my photo files.

    If you compare the camera RGB profile with the sRGB or sRGB IEC61966-2.1 with ColorSync you'll find that they are very similar and that the three could be interchanged without issue. if you're concerned about the camera RGB profile, search for it and remove it from the HD (or just zip it and delete the unzipped version). Then it would not be available to be used by iPhoto.
    There is an Applescript script to assign the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 to any file or folder of files dropped on it. It's not the most preferable way to change profiles. That would be to convert to the profile. That can be done with ColorSync but will have to be done one file at a time. You could try a photo with both ways to see if either is preferable over the other. You can get the script at Toad's Cellar.
    Have you found that the camera RGB profile prints unsatisfactorily when compared to the sRGB profile?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • 4.6 not showing in camera profile pulldown

    I'm running P.S. CS3 and have installed Camera Raw 4.6. "Camera Raw 4.6" shows on the top of my window when I launch images from Bridge for processing in ACR, but when I go to create new color profiles in the Camera Calibration tab, 4.6 is not listed in the pulldown menu? I checked my folder in the Library and the 4.6 plug in is where it should be? Any suggestions?
    Thank you for any help.

    If you want to check the version of ACR, the best way is to look at the title bar of the ACR edit window. If you have the edit window in full-screen mode, you will have to change it to window mode to see the title bar. You can also check by using the Help>About in both Bridge and Photoshop (and if those two don't match, you have installation problems.
    Regarding the version numbers in the calibration profiles, that can be a little confusing. Up until recently, if you wanted the most current version of the profile, you just used the highest version that appeared. If you happened to be on version 3.5 of ACR, for example, and the highest version of profile that appeared in the drop-down was 3.2, that just meant that your camera's profile hadn't been updated since 3.2 and 3.2 still was the one to use. If you also saw a 3.1 in the profile list, that meant that there was a previous profile and if you still needed it for consistency purposes, you had it there as an option. Normally, what you wanted was the highest number profile if you wanted the latest and greatest.
    Recently, Adobe has changed the way it is labeling the camera profiles. Instead of version numbers, they now use names that mimic the camera manufacturer picture styles or in-camera settings. They way they have been differentiating different versions of these new profiles up until now is by specifying beta 1, beta 2, and profile name only (which is assumed to be the latest and greatest).
    I have not seen any of the Adobe team members explain what they plan to do if in the future, they update what is currently considered a "non-beta" profile. I believe that this condition exists now for the 5DmkII so maybe somebody who uses that camera and has downloaded the 5.3 ACR release candidate could comment.
    Bottom line: If you have a camera from a major manufacturer (Canon, Nikon, and a few others), just use the named profiles (for Canon, this would be Camera Standard, Camera Faithful, etc.) and forget the numbered ones.

  • Installation of camera profiles and x-rite Profiles show up only in a certain folder of a catalogue

    Dear all,
    I'm working in a Maverics environment on which LR 5 is running. I've tried to install the camera profiles for the Nikon D800 by copying them to the users Library/Applicaton Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/Camera Profiles. After re-starting LR the profiles didn't show up. In a second attempt I tried to impoprt them with the extention manager which didn't work.
    The second problem I'm facing is, that I've created camera profiles with x-rite. The profiles show up only in a certain folder in LR in the same catalogue. This means in this certain folder named shootings i can choose the x-rite porfiles. When I go -without leaving the catalogue- to an other folder ie. named sports, I can not see the profiles.
    It would be great if somebody has a useful idea
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Cheers Stefan

    See the instruction below for the location where your profiles should be placed. If they are placed in the same folder where Lightroom install package places the profiles created by Adobe they will not be recognized.
    Your custom Camera Raw & Lens Profiles should be installed to the User folders…
    Lightroom 5 no longer uses the shared ProgramData (Windows) / Application Support (Mac) folders for Camera or Lens Profiles. Instead, it stores the built-in profiles with its program files.
    When you create camera or lens profiles, they must be stored in the user locations listed below. If you previously stored custom profiles in other locations, you’ll need to move them to these user folders, otherwise Lightroom won’t be able to find them.
    Windows—C: \ Users \ [your username] \ AppData \ Roaming \ Adobe \ CameraRaw \ CameraProfiles \
    Mac—Macintosh HD / Users / [your username] / Library / Application Support / Adobe / CameraRaw / CameraProfiles /
    For the lens profiles, substitute the LensProfiles folder for the CameraProfiles folder.
    The camera and lens profile file extensions are:
    .dcpr—camera profile recipe file used for creating/editing a profile in the DNG Profile Editor
    .dcp—camera profile
    .lcp—lens profile

  • Accurate colour profile for Canon 40D?

    Hi all,
    I have an Canon 40D but unfortunately my colour checker is not compatible with the new DNG Profile Editor (it's a PerfectPix Natural).
    Has anyone here made a profile for the 40D using the Gretag colour checker that they'd be happy to share with me? I realise that your 40D may not replicate colours in exactly the same way as my camera, however it's got to be closer than any of my other profile options at the moment.
    Thanks in advance,
    James
    PS... I hope this request isn't inappopriate, the user to user forum for Camera Raw seemed like the best place.

    Hi David/Eric,
    I understand what you mean about the contrast, however I am comfortable that my images are exposed correctly on the whole. I guess it's just very hard to quantify, and very hard to prove, where my images are not "right" colour wise.
    I also realise that white balance plays a major role in this type of subjective comparison... The issue I'm finding is that when I am flicking between profiles for an image there are times I just can't find anything that's right.
    Maybe the biggest issue, at least in part, is perception. When analyzing an example image I've seen the following behaviour for each profile:
    - Camera Standard is probably best, but while on this example it's okay, in some images it's over-saturated.
    - Adobe Standard is close, probably slightly too green.
    - ACR 4.4 is up there too, best in some cases but can have issues with skin tones.
    - Camera Faithful is next on the list but tends to look flat and lifeless (even though no change other than profile).
    - Camera Portrait makes faces too pink and skies too blue. In general it seems to over-saturate.
    - Camera Landscape makes faces look pretty good, but skies and landscapes are WAY over saturated.
    - Camera Neutral looks relatively good colour wise but has no contrast and looks under saturated.
    The problem is, in this one example they've behaved in a certain way. In another example (even one where I've manually white balanced) they'll behave differently... suddenly Camera Standard will look terrible and ACR4.4 will look the best... or Adobe Standard.
    I guess the issue is I'm just not confident that LR is reproducing the colours that the camera saw... but only because I don't think the profile is right. Once I know that the profile is right (and whether I'm being silly or not, I would be satisfied that Joe Blog's 40D is going to be almost identical to my 40D) then I'll know that the faces look a little red because I've got my white balance wrong. Right now there are three that are "close" to what I saw, but I'm not confident that any of them are spot on.
    I hope this makes sense. I'm not attempting to be difficult, to be honest I figured that the creation of the Profile Editor would lead to a proliferation of downloadable camera profiles that were supposedly "colourmetrically accurate" for each camera... maybe I'm just a little quick on the bandwagon.
    Cheers,
    James
    PS. I realise that colour gamut of the monitor plays into this also, but I am assuming that if I can SEE that the colours are too saturated then I'm not exceeding the gamut... I guess it's possible that my "washed out" profile Camera Faithful is exceeding the gamut and subsequently doesn't look very good?

  • How can I download my RAW photos from my Canon 40D camera to my MBPS

    I have a Canon 40D camera, and in downloading my RAW photos to my new MBP the files convert to JPEG instead of staying in RAW. Is there a seething I can use to maintain my photos as RAW

    How are you doing the downloading?
    If you download raw files with iPhoto, iPhoto can only edit the JPEG preview that is embedded with each raw file. iPhoto is not a true raw editor, because it's a consumer-level product, not professional-level.
    The files should remain in RAW format if you download any of these ways, by using:
    Apple Image Capture (in your Utilities folder)
    Canon Digital Photo Professional (comes with your camera, but since the 40D is so old, go to the Canon site and upgrade your copy to the latest version for compatibility with the latest Mac OS X)
    Apple Aperture
    Adobe Lightroom
    Any other professional raw organizer/editor like Capture One

  • What is the BEST way to get my macbook with lion on it, to communicate with my Canon 40D camera?

    What is the BEST way to get my macbook with lion on it, to communicate with my Canon 40D camera? It says the utility disk is a PowerPC app and that is no longer supported. What do I do now? I can't upload photos from my camera.

    Also, I had the same problem happen when I tried to install an older version of Corel Painter. Are Macbook Pro users just NOT supposed to be able to use their laptops for the purposes they are best designed for?

  • Camera Raw 4.4.1 still unable to preview Canon 40D CR2 files

    Even after installing Camera Raw 4.4.1 plugin update as per installation instructions and purging central Cache...I am still unable to preview Canon 40D Raw (CR2) or Digital Negative (DNG) files on CS3 Bridge or Photoshop.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

    Jeff..thanks for your helpful feedback. OS used is Vista. After recieving your suggestion I confirmed that I saved the plug-in to Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS3\File Formats - and then rebooted the system. This seemed to resolve the problem and i can now preview raw file.
    Jeff, thanks again. Cheers, Doug

  • When I attempt to apply a lens profile in the Develop module the only choices are for the Fujifilm X100/S/T even though in the Library module the EXIF data correctly shows the camera as the X-T1 and the precise lens used to take the picture. How do I get

    When I attempt to apply a lens profile in the Develop module the only choices are for the Fujifilm X100/S/T even though in the Library module the EXIF data correctly shows the camera as the X-T1 and the precise lens used to take the picture. How do I get the right profile available?

    First, the required profile needs to be present. LR 5.4 supports the X-T1 in terms of understanding its Raw format, but will not come with a profile for every lens which can be mounted onto that.
    A profile is made for each specific lens, as mounted on a certain camera. It can also be used with pictures taken on a different (reasonably similar) camera body than the one originally used during profiling. This is subject to the sensor format: you can employ a given lens profile made for full frame, on an image from a crop sensor behind the same lens - but not vice versa.
    Next, the image type needs to correspond to the image type which has been built into the profile: Raw, or non-Raw.
    Lightroom offers only profiles of the right type for the image(s) concerned. There are many more provided for correcting camera Raw, than for correcting camera JPG. That is also the case with additional profiles, e.g. those accessed via the Adobe lens profile downloader utility.
    Finally, in the event that there simply is no profile out there for a given lens, it is not particularly difficult (though a little tedious) for the end user to generate one, using a further Adobe utility which is downloadable as a package, including a range of checkerboard calibration targets, each of which needs to be printed at a stated physical size.

  • Lightroom 4.3 doesn't show my Camera Calibration Profile.

    I have Lightroom 4.3 and a Canon 6D. I cannot get Lightroom to display my Camera Calibration Profile when I am developing a raw file.
    I have dug through the MAC Library and Application Support folder and found CameraRaw. That folder contains my listed cameras. But when I am in Lightroom, I do not see that profile in the Camera Calibration section.
    Is there a way to force Lightroom to display my camera profile? Lightroom 2 used to display it.

    If the screen shot you posted is what you see in the Lightroom Camera Calibration panel, then they are the profiles that are specific to your camera model.
    Thats just the way they are named. You will not see profiles that are specific to other cameras.

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?

  • No camera profile showing for Sony RX10 in LR 5.4

    I cannot find the Sony RX10 in my camera profile list for lens corrections. I can see the Sony RX1 and Sony RX1r but absolutley nothing for the Sony RX10 which I have imported RAW files from.

    The built-in profiles are in the Camera Raw engine, that exists in both LR and the ACR plug-in for Photoshop.
    Unfortunately, only the latest PS ACR 8.4 plug-in has information about what profiles are built-in.  I guess the LR folks were too busy getting LR Mobile to work to add similar notifications to LR 5.4, but the built-in profiles are there even if you aren't told about it.
    Adobe started adding built-in profile support a while back and it has lead to confusion when some older model cameras have selectable external profiles while newer model cameras don't.  Typically, cameras that apply profiles to their camera jpgs inside the camera will have built-in profiles from Adobe to mimic this behavior.
    Lest there be any doubt that profiles are automatically being applied, here is the picture, above, opened in a raw converter that doesn't have lens profiles, and you can see the curved vertical edges at the left and right--pincushion distortion:
    And here is that same sample image in LR 5.4 without any lens profile chosen and the verticals are straight:
    You don't say what lens you have on the RX10, but for this sample image, the lens is a 24-200mm and I don't even see an external profile for a lens with those characteristics.

Maybe you are looking for
