Nikon Camera Profiles (D700)

Hi,
When the D700 was brandnew I downloaded and installed camera profiles. Since then I use Camera Standard beta 2. I now upgraded to Lightroom 3 and I guess these profiles are now an official part of Lightroom. And here my question: How do I get the official profiles? Are they identical to the "beta 2" profiles? Are they better? There is something called "Camera Standard" and "Adobe Standard" in the camera calibration drop down menue.
Thanks and greetings
Stefan

You can download the V2 beta profiles for the D700 here: http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2010/03/new_nikon_d3_and_d700_camera_v.html. These are the ones I use with my D700.

  • Nikon Camera Profiles - LR6 CC

    Hello,
    Today I took a few photos and noticed in LR6 CC that not all of the photos have the Nikon V2 profiles available.  Some photos do and some do not.
    I'm not sure why?  Shouldn't the v2 profiles be available to all photos ?
    Is there something I am missing?

  • Camera profile information needed

    Where do I find write-ups on camera profiles. The site search turns up nothing.  Specifically, how do I determine whether I have the latest Cannon and Nikon camera profiles?  We use mostly 5DM2, D3/D700 DSLRs.
    I am specifically concerned whether the Nikon D3/D700 profiles are up to date because they appear (to my eye) to have some weirdness happening.  There appears to be an unnecessary tradeoff between accurate color and contrast, especially in orange vs highlights.  I happen to have a very keen eye for certain animal hair color and can tell when its not perfect.  The color appears to be most accurate when the whites are totally blown out!?  Attempts to make my own have as well fixed the contrast, but with very unacceptable color.
    I've seen some 3rd party articles, but they tend to ramble, and I have no idea of their veracity.   Are there any "white papers" on this?  And are there any links with which to verify stock profile dates?  Is there a list of current profiles?  Any help would be appreciated becuse I feel like I'm continually googling dead ends.

    I've never had a problem with hardcopy. It only seems to be a display problem.
    I think you have already identified the problem and it is your monitor. Screen images are capable of displaying a wider dynamic range than hardcopy "print images." The usual scenario is that you get everything adjusted to look great onscreen, but the darn prints don't look as good! You have the opposite situation, again clearly indicating something is defective with your monitor and/or the calibration is off (bad hardware calibration device, software, or other compatibility issue).
    Go to this site and check the ‘White Saturation’ and Black Level tests, and report your viewing results with the current monitor setup:
    http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/
    Black level: Calibrated: 1-7 are barely if at all noticable. The differences are not linear to my eye --the difference increases as they get lighter. Uncalibrated: All are visible, The darker squares have a very faint red tint. The differences are more linear.
    The Black Level test needs to be performed with your browser in full-screen mode (F11 with IE) and very low room light. Even if the room lighting is a little high you should still be able to see all of the squares (6-10). It appears your black level settings OR room lighting is off.
    Thanks for the reply and the link. I am set to collect raw & jpg samples and will get some the next time out, next day or so.
    I'll be interested in your RAW + JPEG test results. Since you say 50% of the viewing audience will be "online," I highly suggest that you try viewing the processed images on a number of different computers that have NO monitor calibration. It will probably be necessary to "adjust" the images slightly for best image quality on "typical" bright uncalibrated displays. Considering your target audience, this will be more challenging than making good prints!

  • Lightroom 4.3 camera profiles. V3 beta no more available!

    After fresh installation of Lightroom 4.3, I am not able to install old nikon camera profiles v3 beta, therefore my old pictures are darker by -0,5EV. Copied profiles to the proper directory and NOTHING!

  • Does LR3 include new Nikon D700/D3 Camera Profiles?

    A few months ago, Adobe released some new "beta" camera profiles for the Nikon D700/D3. Are these profiles included in LR3? If so, do I have to do anything to get my photos to use them?

    Mark,
    I cannot give you a definitive answer to your question, but I can tell you what file-dates the different D3/D700 profiles have:
    Older Profiles:         31.10.2008
    Beta-Profiles:          06.03.2010
    ARC 6.1/LR 3.0:     21.05.2010
    So my guess would be that the beta changes have been included. If they will be used automatically on already imported photos after installing LR 3.0 you would have to test, since the profile names are different. On new imports, they'll be used automatically.
    Maybe somebody from Adobe (Eric?) can confirm this.

  • D700 Camera Profile Artifacts (still present in ACR 5.5?)

    Just installed ACR 5.5 RC and it looks like the color problems with the "Camera" profiles (for the Nikon D700 and D3) are still present. Namely, green/magenta color casts in what should be neutral areas, and weird posterization effects in shadow areas. Then again, I'm not sure if  installing a new version of ACR update camera color profiles.
    I posted a thread about this on Dpreview a while ago; or just do a Google search for "D700 color" and it's one of the top results.
    Here's a Flickr photoset with some crops showing the issue. The artifacts with the shadows are kind of hard to see in those small crops though (it's better to look at the original image).
    To Adobe: can we get any sort of an idea when this is going to fixed?

    What you're seeing - the color shifts anyway - are as a result of the "hue twists" in the new generation Adobe profiles. What it amounts to is that the new profiles change the hue of a pixel based on its intensity. So, what were in the original image two pixels with the same "color", but different intensities end up as different colors. This has been discussed quite intensively in context of the 5DII, which also shows these issues, both on this forum (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/311802?start=0&tstart=0) and on dpreview (http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1032&message=32482073)
    If you want to know more about the technicalities, I've written about hue twists here: http://chromasoft.blogspot.com/2009/02/adobe-hue-twist.html
    You might say that well designed "hue twisted" profile would keep neutrals neutral, and that's true, but there's a complication - what neutral is varies with white balance, which makes it a judgement call as to how much "twist" you can tolerate close to a hue that might conceivably end up as a neutral. Probably what adobe will need to do to solve this issue (if they decide it impacts enough people to be worth addressing) is to tweak the profile to maintain "untwisted" across a wider range of near neutral colors.
    Short Adobe fixing the profiles, you have three possible solutions;
    a) Use the earlier profiles which didn't have the twist
    b) use a profile generated by Adobe's DNG profile editor (which never have twists)
    c) If you want to try and preserve some of the profiles's look, you can also try untwisting the profiles with dcpTool (disclaimer - I wrote dcpTool): http://dcptool.sourceforge.net/ However, be aware that dcpTool can only preserve some part of the look, not all of it.

  • 3.3 RC - need camera profile for Nikon D7000?

    I'm kind of a knucklehead about Adobe so please be patient with me....
    I have a Nikon D7000 (not a D700).  Downloaded 3.3 RC and can edit my RAW pics - works for me.
    But there are no profiles in the camera calibration.  What am I missing ?  Is it a Camera Raw update?
    Maybe one of you folks can explain this to me.
    Thanks, Michael.

    No, Lightroom does not use the ACR plug-in.  The camera profiles are part of the Lightroom installation.  I don't have a D7000, but I recall reading in another thread that there was an Adobe Standard profile available.  My guess is that this is preliminary support until the other regular profiles can be created.  I might be wrong.

  • Can't see a nikon d800 camera profile in adobe camera raw 8.2

    Hello,
    I can't see a nikon d800 camera profile in adobe camera raw 8.2
    When I open a NEF file from D800, I can see in upper left corner "Camera Raw 8.2 - Nikon D800", but when I open  "camera calibration" and click "camera profile", I can only see "Adobe standard, camera landscape, camera neutral, camera vivid" etc., but there is no "Nikon d800 profie
    I copied .dpx files with that profile to:   C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles     ,but nothing happened.
    Strange thing is that when I open a NEF file from old Nikon D80, in "camera profile" appears: "camera D2X mode1", "camera D2X mode2", "camera D2X mode3". Any ideas?

    The profiles that you see listed are the profiles for the camera that took the photo.  You will not see the camera model listed.  Those are the profiles Adobe created for the camera that took the image.  You cannot change profiles to those of a different camera.
    Apparently older Nikon cameras had the profiles you see listed for your D80.  I have those same profiles of as part of my D90 choices.  But, again apparently, those profiles are not part of newer cameras.  I wouldn't know, because I'm still using a D90.

  • Nikon P7700 not listed in the camera profile directory

    Why is the Nikon P7700 not listed in the camera profile dirctory of Lightroom 4.2, and not selectable in calibration  menu?

    Just to clarify again, what has already been stated.  There IS a calibration profile for your camera.  The name of that profile is Adobe Standard.  The only profiles that display are profiles for the specific model that took the picture.  Every camera that Adobe supports, even the digital SLR cameras, has an Adobe Standard profile.  That is the "standard" profile that Adobe created for the camera.  A camera will either be supported and have at least a profile with that name, or it will not be supported at all.
    Asking when the other profiles will be provided is futile.  I can only guess, but the answer will probably be, never.  If you want to create additional profiles you can download the DNG Profile Creator and create your own.  But I suspect you are getting all that you're going to get from Adobe.  I have a Fuji camera, an older one, and I have three Adobe Standard profiles for it.  Two of them are designated with numbers corresponding to older versions of ACR/Lightroom.

  • Is there a camera profile for Nikon D80 available for Photoshop/Lightroom CC

    I am new to Lightroom and Photoshop. After watching a few YouTube instructional video's for Lighroom I looked for my Lens (Nikon 18-135 Zoom) but could not see one. One video suggested looking in Photoshop, there I can find the lens but not my camera. Several video's talk about downloading profiles from the internet, is there a place to do this for either?
    Is a camera profile even used in Lightroom ?

    Thanks, this workaround works:
    I copied appropriate lens profile from (the .lcp file)

  • Camera profiles for Nikon D810 reveal posterization

    The following profiles included with LR 5.6 & ACR 8.6 reveal noticeable posterization with the Nikon D810 RAW files.
    Camera Standard
    Camera Landscape
    Camera Vivid
    Camera Monochrome
    For more details, there's a large discussion of the issue on DPReview.com, here
    Additionally, shadow detail recovery in LR & ACR is less useable with the D810 RAW files. I am forced to use Nikon's Capture NX-D for better shadow recovery with accurate camera profiles, which significantly slows my workflow, as I prefer to do all imports and edits through LR & Photoshop overall.
    As a point of reference, LR & ACR's handling of D800E RAW files is wonderful; however the D810 RAW handling is not quite there yet. On the D800E RAW, I'm able to move the shadow slider significantly, revealing more detail with no compromise to image quality. On the contrary, shadow recovery in the D810, using LR 5.6 & ACR 8.6, is less forgiving; increasing the slider will sometimes affect other elements of the image, producing a less pleasing result.
    It would be be greatly appreciated if Adobe could address these issues in an upcoming update.
    Thanks,
    Rumi

    It is possible that the shadow recovery problems are profile-related and Adobe redoing them might fix both problems, but if all Adobe-supplied profiles have the same issue rather than just the subset that also has posterization problems, then I’d suggest you make a separate post about the shadow recovery issue, including screenshots of what you see and example NEFs from the D800 and D810 taken in similar conditions for others to download and replicate the issue with.
    That NX-D does something preferable to LR is probably not a good enough reason for Adobe to care, because the Adobe raw engine is not the same as the Nikon raw engine, as both are proprietary products known only to their respective manufacturers, so comparisons between Adobe handling of the same scene in different cameras were one is clearly bad, might have a better chance of being taken seriously.

  • Lightroom 2 and Camera Profiles for the Nikon D50

    Hi,
    I've installed Lightroom v2 and the new Camera Profiles, as per the instructions and various postings I should now see my camera name appear in the Profile section of Camera Calibration.
    The default profile is ACR 4.4 and when I drop the list down I see the usual settings and Camera D2X Mode 1 Beta 1, Mode 2, etc. but no reference to Nikon D50?
    The Metadata on my images is set to a Make of NIKON CORPORATION and a Model of NIKON D50.
    Looking in C:\programdata\adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\ I can see there is a D50 profile but Lightroom v2 isn't showing it.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Latest Update: New Camera Profiles for the D700 (Version 4)

    I see with the latest update of Lightroom brought with it version 4 of the camera profiles.  I've dabbled with using several of them, especially the Camera Portrait.  I have versions that consist of for example:
    Camera Portrait
    Camera Portrait beta 2
    Camera Portrait v3
    Camera Portrait v4
    Of course, the previous versions can be left as is however the list I have now is quite long and wanted to know if I would be missing out if I were to discard/delete previous versions and just keep the v4's.
    I realize this is personal preference however are the newest versions (version 4) for Camera D2X, Camera Landsape, Camera Neutral, Camera Portrait, Camera Standard and Camera Vivid for the D700 all one needs for the average Lightroom user?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you all for giving me your advice.  Like kbkbn said, the older versions don't do anything by being there and you never know if you want to use one of them in the future.  I will start using the version 4 profiles and compare them more to the older versions.  Thanks again.
    Are there any other worthwhile sources of profiles?  I do have a few I created myself with my Color Checker Passport for specific shooting locations in my yard for specific times of days.
    Thanks again.

  • Nikon D3 Profile "Camera Landscape" sometimes shows ugly violet cast

    Hi
    Lightroom 2.2 with Camera Profile for Nikon D3 "Camera Landscape".
    RAW images with a deep blue sky and some yellow/orange cast render in LR with an ugly violet cast.
    Has anybody else also seen this behaviour. Apart from that, I am very happy with the profile "Camera Landscape", but for this kind of images, it is not usable.
    Any ideas?
    Has anybody else observed the same?
    For an example, follow this link:
    http://www.pbase.com/hpgisler2/cameraprofile
    (look at the sky above the clouds around the sign-post).
    Regards
    HP

    >RAW images with a deep blue sky and some yellow/orange cast render in LR with an ugly violet cast<<br />
    I raised this issue at the time of the Beta 2 introduction. I my case the problem was a violet tinge introduced into grey areas of D3 NEF files. Adobe asked for examples which I submitted, and which they acknowledged had a problem.
    Nothing was altered in the final release - which for the Nikon D3 at least is identical to the Beta 2.
    As it happens I was not too unhappy as I can - and do - continue to use the Beta 1 Camera profile as my default. And funnily enough I never experienced highlight posterization issues either then or now.
    I did however wonder - for a very little time - at the introduction of the final release, just how much of a "Public" Beta these were.

  • CS5 Photoshop Nikon Raws - cam profiles

    Hi.
    I have a Nikon D7000. Most of the pictures I make are RAWs (NEF).  I work often with my own camera-profiles (landscape, vivid, portrait, etc.). One of these profiles is black & white with a touch of sepia. Now, when I open it with PS, the picture is coloured, not B/W. And I can´t find a way how to convert it exactly to the same JPG or TIF like the RAW picture. In the PS-RAW-menue there are only the standard profiles, not mine. Is there a possibility to load my profiles?

    It will take some tweaking to get it just like you have on your camera, but you can set the saturation on the image on the  main ACR tab to -100, then go to the split toning tab and adjust the setting to match the sepia you want.  Then save those settings as a preset.
