LR3 Camera calibration

When I click on the profile in Camera calibration in Develop mode  I get, amongst others, Nikon D2X modes 1,2 and 3 although the photo I am working on was taken on a D3X. I have not loaded any profiles in respect of the D2X. Can someone explain how I access profiles for a Nikon D3X and D700? I am sorry if this is a pretty basic question but I just getting to grips with LR3. Many thanks

I have a Leica X1 that shoots DNG files.
When I open 'Camera Calibration' in LR I only see 'Embedded' and 'Adobe Standard' (=default). Does this mean that the X1 is not supported in LR3 and/or which one should I use?
Richard.
"Embedded" is what you will see on JPEG images.  "Adobe Standard" is the only profile that has been created for your raw files.  Nikon and Canon (and maybe others) have multiple profiles.  But I know my Fuji cameras only have the single Adobe Standard profile for the raw images.  The fact that you see your images is an indicator that your camera is supported.

  • LR3 Camera Calibration Causes Noise

    Hi everyone,
    I've just recently started noticing some strange noise in the background of my portraits.  For example (noise most apparent, when viewing jpg against black background):
    I shot the image on a Nikon D700 (full frame) with a 70-200mm VRII at native ISO (200) under studio strobe and as RAW; the crop is taken from an unedited image (I'm using Adobe camera RAW 6.5), the only changes to the default lightroom settings are in the camera calibration section: I've got the default set to Camera Neutral (beta 2) instead of the factory defaults.  When I tweak the white balance (which was set on Auto) I can eventually make the noise go away, although this is a less than ideal solution.
    When I change the camera calibration settings to something like Adobe Standard , I get the following:
    As you can see, smooth as silk.  Now, have anyone seen this before?  Is the only remedy: not to set the setting to Camera Neutral (in fact it seems every setting causes the noise except for ACR4.6 and Adobe Standard)?  Am I missing something?
    Thanks for all your thoughts!

  • Camera calibration - specific camera models not listed

    I'm an amateur moving up to LR 3 and have been trying to learn this program by reading the LR3 book by Scott Kelby. He shows that the Camera Calibration feature has some settings for specific cameras yet the drop down menu has none listed. I've upgraded to 3.6 and the images were copied from raw to DNG. Wondering if I'm doing something wrong?? 

    You can find camera profiles for Sony models here:
    http://www.piraccini.net/2011/02/profili-colore-sony-a900-per-adobe-lr.html
    But please note this excerpt from his site:
    "The standard profiles are accurate only for the A700, the A850, the A900, the NEX-3 and the NEX-5 (where I've photographed the color table with the corresponding camera), for the other cameras I've just used the best matching one."

  • Camera Calibration default setting question

    HI I'm using a Canon 5D w/ LR3.3. I want to set the Camera Calibration (in the Develop module) to Adobe Standard and have it set that way all the time. I have looked in Preferences and cant find a way to do this?
    Thanks

     One other question: When I look at the Process drop-down, (right above Profile), it now says '2003'. Before when it said, '2010 Current'. Is that just because Adobe Standard came out in 2003?
    The process version has nothing to do with the camera profile selected, Adobe Standard exists for all LR supported cameras, and has so before PV2010.
    The process version influences the way the Raw processing pipeline works (pre LR3 vs. LR3). Quote from the manual:
    Lightroom 3 uses improved processes
    to calculate Detail and Fill Light adjustments. Photos that are
    edited for the first time in Lightroom 3 use these new processes.
    Photos that were adjusted using a previous version of Lightroom
    do not.
    To take advantage of the newer processing technology,
    however, you can update photos to the current process version.
    The process version specifies which version of the Camera Raw sharpening
    and noise reduction functions are used to adjust and render photos.
    The new process version is Process 2010. The old process version
    is Process 2003.
    I guess you might have been looking at a newly imported image when you saw 2010, and are looking at an image imported before LR3 when you see 2003.
    And should I be using Adobe Standard in the first place? Is it just a personel thing?
    It is a personal preference for a starting point to work on your images. I use Adobe Standard for my 5DMkII as well, whereas I use a different one for my 1DsMkII, because I don't like the Adobe Standard there.

  • Lightroom: Why does auto white balance no longer work after changing the camera calibration profile?

    I'm using NEF raw files from Nikon.
    Lets say for example I import a NEF file into Lightroom (v4) and click on 'auto' for white balance. The white balance in the image is  adjusted correctly (somewhat). However, if I then change the camera profile (in the camera calibration section) from 'adobe standard' to 'camera standard' then the white balance in the image becomes very wrong. I then have to set the white balance back to 'as shot' and correct it manually instead.
    Why would 'auto white balance' no longer work just because I change the profile from 'adobe standard' to 'camera standard'?
    Any ideas?

    Works as expected here...
    Which Lr version and what OS??

  • How do you get the camera information to show up in Camera Calibration in Lightroom 5

    I have a Nikon D7000, I am trying to get the information to show up in the profiles of Camera Calibration.  It shows up in my metadata in the library module but not in the Camera Calibration.  I am looking at a RAW photo too, so it should be there.  Adobe says that the camera is supported in Camera Raw 6.3 and I am using Camera Raw 8.2 in Lightroom 5.2.   Any help is appreciated.

    Moving discussion to Lightroom forum.

  • Camera Calibration Profile in Adobe Camera Raw 5.3

    I'm trying to figure out the Camera Calibration tab in Adobe Camera Raw 5.3.  It seems that every picture I open selects a different Camera Profile in the drop down menu.  How do I know which one is appropriate for my camera (Nikon D40X)?  Or, do you just select whichever one looks the best to you on the drop down menu for that picture?  Or, does it matter that much at all since they never had this tab in there before?

    I'm not sure I understand...when I open an image in Adobe Camera Raw 5.3, does it open with a different "default" for each picture?  Or should I be using a specific profile from the pulldown menu, e.g., ACR. 4.4 or "Standard Adobe" or should I try them all and see which one I like?
    Thanks.

  • How to Save Camera Calibration and Lens Correction in Camera raw 6.1

    I downloaded and installed the Camera Raw 6.1 release candidate.  I open an image and set the camera calibration and the lens correction to auto for Nikon.  I save these settings as new Camera raw defaults, but when I open other images, the changes were not made.  How can I save these items as defaults?
    Swila

    Swila, were your "other images" previously edited in Camera Raw? I.e., do they already have saved image settings? The defaults that you save via the flyout menu will only apply to new images, or if you reset an existing image to the defaults. (e.g., choose "Camera Raw Defaults" from the flyout menu).

  • What does "Camera Profile" mean in the Camera Calibration tab in PSE 12?

    I recently made the switch to edit exclusively in Photoshop Elements 12. I need help understanding what I need to select for the "Camera Profile" drop down in the Camera Calibration tab. I shoot with a Canon Mark II. Will the camera profile selection affect my prints at all? First, what does the camera profile mean? I go back and forth between Adobe Standard and Camera Standard. Sometimes I get truer color with Camera Standard than the Adobe Standard for my outside photos. I'm so confused as to which one I should be editing with. I just want to be sure this is not going to affect my prints because I just recently ordered a print from Millers and it was saturated, shadowing and skin had orange tone. I have never had a problem with my calibration and have always ordered from Millers with no problem. This is the first print I ordered after editing exclusively with PSE 12 so I'm wondering if I have setting wrong. Thanks so much!

    Will the camera profile selection affect my prints at all?
    It will affect prints to the same extent that it affects the monitor display, but no more than that. The differences that you see in color rendering when switching between profiles will be embodied in the jpg that you eventually make for sending to the print lab, but will not in itself cause the discrepancies you describe.

  • Problem with camera calibration profiles

    I've been using Lightroom 4.2 on windows with a Canon 450D for a while and i only use raw files.
    Under the "Camera Calibration" tab I could chose betwen acr4.4, Adobe Standard and a few canon presets (paysage, neutral, etc.)
    In my opinion the ACR4.4 profile gives me better and more natural colors most of the time
    Last week i upgraded for a Canon 650d. When I import my pictures and go the "develop", I can only chose betwen the Adobe Standard and the canon presets. There is no ACR x.x profile (replace the "x" by whatever it should be for a 650d)
    It's not the end of the world but is it possible to download it ?  or did they remove it completely for newer camera models.
    In the "about adobe photoshop lightroom" windows, it says i have Camera Raw version 7.3. Reinstalling lightroom made no difference and all my drivers are up to date.

    ACR is legacy profile. No new cameras have it. It won't disappear for older cameras though.
    Adobe Standard is Adobe's, well, current standard.
    If not optimal for your tastes, you can modify it using DNG Profile Editor.

  • Camera Raw Camera Calibration Tab and 5D Mark III

    I don't think that many people do this in camera raw, but it was kind of an important step in my workflow with the Canon 7D before and is just not working the same way with the 5D Mark III now.
    In the Camera Calibration Tab (Third from the right side) I always changed Camera Profile from Adobe Standard to Camera Standard or Camera Portrait. This step made the image automatically look better, contrast was better and the highlights look a lot better that way. Of course the "Camera Portrait" option makes the image a lil bit red, like the Picture Style in the camera does. But it was an easy adjustment with the Hue Slider of the Red Channel. Like I already said - really great improvement of the image on the 7D raw files, beautiful highlights, shiny, contrasty and so on... Same stuff worked with 5D Mark II perfectly, too.
    Now with the 5D Mark III the "Camera Portrait" option, my favourite one, gets me pretty bad results. The Image is too strong oversaturated, too much red in the skintones and in the shadows, too! Shadow contrast gets worse and I can't control this settings the way I did before with the hue/saturation sliders of the channels. It's too extreme red or it's too yellow, but not something right between this extremes. And the highlights get some green tint, so it's no real optimization of the image overall quality at all, like with the other cameras. I don't know if the support of the 5DMIII is still not up to date... It is not only my camera, I also have asked other photographers with a 5D Mark III and they have the same issues changing the camera profile. Lightroom has exactly the same effect... It would be great, if an Adobe Employee can forward this issues, so that it gets tweaked with the further updates and 5dm3 will work the same way in camera raw like mark 2 or 7D.
    Sorry for my bad english

    Yes, white balance is another possible reason for mismatch
    These rules apply:
    - if you use white balance "as shot", then white balance in ACR will be the same as from camera or DPP (in a sense - what is white color in ACR will be white in DPP also). However, color temperature/tint shown in ACR will be probably slightly different than value recorded in exif of jpeg or raw file. It's because in that case, whitebalancing is performed using some metadata in raw file by both ACR or DPP, while temperature displayed in ACR is calculated from that metadat using color matrices in selected profile, according to a formula from one book (as documented in dng sdk), while DPP is probably using some other formula or slightly different color matrices
    - the same will happen if you use WB dropper on exactly the same position in the photo by both ACR and DPP
    - but, if you use the same temperature preset in ACR and DPP (for instance 5200 K), then white in ACR and DPP will probably be a bit different, because whitebalancing is performed in oposite direction now (ACR calculates RGB multipliers from that temperature and using color matrices in the profile)
    I hope this was understandable, although it's a bit complicated

  • Camera calibration in Camera Raw 6.7 VS 7.0*

    Hi again!
    I noticed that in cameraw raw 7.0, under camera calibration, my only choice is Adobe standard. I get the same for me Fuji X100.
    In the 6.7 version witn CS6, for my Canon 5d Mark III (same with the Mark II), I had the full array: Standard, Faithful, Landscape, etc.
    Have I forgotten something under "camera raw preference"? I included "make default specific to camera serial number".
    Thanks,
    Marcel

    See this link for details on camera support in Camera Raw versions:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2012/03/raw-support-in-lightro om-and-camera-raw.html
    Snip taken from link above:
    You’ll also note that ACR7, available with Photoshop CS6 beta, is lagging the most in updated camera support.  This is based on when we lock down or “bake” the code for each release.   Even though ACR7 was only released last week it was “baked” before Lightroom 4.0 and Camera Raw 6.7.  Similarly, Lightroom 4.0 was finalized before Camera Raw 6.7.  We’ll get Lightroom and Camera Raw in sync soon but in the interim, here’s the latest incremental support list for each product, relative to Camera Raw 6.6 and Lightroom 3.6:
    Photoshop CS6 beta with ACR7

  • 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 5.5 will not install?  And Camera calibration button question.

    I just built a new computer with 7 PRO and installed all my software. So when it comes time to instal 5.5 raw it goes about half way through and tells me to shut off Bridge.  As far as I know the bridge window and program are off and not running.  I even unpined it off the taskbar.
    In CS4 when opening a Raw file and I go to my camera calibration botton there are only two options that come up, Arc 3.3 and 4.4. Where are all the other options at?  Do they come with the 5.5 update?  Thanks Keig

    Odds are you've got Bridge set to auto-launch at startup...make sure it's not running when you try to install the update.,.and yes, the update should install the addition DNG Profile options.
