Profile for Canon Powershot SD870 (Ixus 860)

I could not find a Lens/Camera profile for the SD870 so I created one myself.  It does help and shows I neat it is to make these corrections.  I don't know much about setting my camera and very little about Lightroom 3, except that both are excellent products.
I will upload my profile, but first I would like to see if I can improve it or find a better one.
Limitation is my profile:
Small target - Legal 5x13 72 Points, therefore camera close to target.
Shooting in auto mode. 
Not knowing what I am doing
As to my profile questions.
What do I put for Screen Dimension (pixels)?  in the Adobe Lens Profile Creator
Has anyone else profiled the SD870?  If so, they have probably done a better job.
Does the Adobe profile have any relationship with the Raw profile I see when I google about this?
Thanks for any help
Richard

I found the answer to one of my questions.  The ruler for the screen dimension is part of the Profile Maker. These are good instructions.

  • Lens profile for Canon PowerShot S120?

    Is there a lens profile for the Canon PowerShot S120?

    Powershsot S100 is available - minor difference in aperture specification but same zoom range - implying that the elements may be the same.  Could serve for your purposes and works well for my S100.

    It requires the Canon Hacker's Developement Kit (CHDK). It runs off of your SD card and does not harm your camera. Download a program called Stick-

    Follow the directions and you will be able to shoot in RAW along with some other deatures not available on your camera previously.

  • Profile for Canon G10 to simulate Olympus E-3 colors

    I want to create a profile for Canon G10 which will simulate Olympus E-3 colors.
    I performed the following steps, but the result is very disappointing:
    1. Photographed a GretacgMacbeth ColorChecker with a G10 and a E-3, in the same light conditions (Open shade) in RAW.
    2. Converted the RAW files to DNG with DNG Converter 5.4, all default settings.
    3. Opened the E-3 DNG file in Profile Editor. White balanced by right-click on patch #19. Set Base Profile to E-3 Adobe Standard, Color table 6500K, 'Both color tables'.
    4. Set 18 Control Points, one on each color patch, #1 to #18. Wrote down the HSL values for each.
    5. Closed the E-3 file and cleared everything.
    6. Opened the G10 DNG file in Profile Editor. White balanced by right-click on patch #19. Set Base Profile to G10 Camera Standard, Color table 6500K, 'Both color tables'.
    4. Set 18 Control Points, one on each color patch, #1 to #18. Wrote down the HSL values for each.
    7. Noted the numeric difference between the HSL values for each patch in the G10 file, vs the E-3 file.
    8. Corrected the HSL values for each control point, by the numeric difference between the two files.
    9. Saved and exported with a new name.
    Obviously I did something wrong, because the result is BAD!
    I'll appreciate it if someone could help and point me in the right direction.
    Thanks,
    Moshe

    I'd like to add two observations about my above experiment:
    1. If I change the values of a Control Point using the sliders or the point on the color wheel, the preview changes, but much less than the change of the slider. Say, I change the H slider to -10, the change in the preview is only -2, or so. Is that how it should be?
    2. If I hover with the cursor over a color patch in the ColorChecker preview the values change, probably due to noise, and it's difficult to decide which is the correct point. I didn't find an option, like in Photoshop, to set the sampling size so the value is an average of several pixels in all directions.

  • Lens Correction profile for Canon 18-200mm IS

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a profile for Canon lens EF-S 18-200mm f3.5-5.6 IS - I can't find it in Lightroom and at the moment I'm using a profile for similar lenses from Sigma and at first glance it looks ok, but I have to manually find that lens at each photo, which is quite annoying.
    I'm sure there's lots of people using same lens (as it comes included in Canon 50D PRO package which from what I hear is very popular), so maybe someone actually took an effort to create the profile using Adobe's lens profile creator?
    If anyone has got that profile handy, I would very much appreciate if you could send me a link to where I can download it from or simply contact me.
    Thanks cheaps!
    Tom

    You can choose "Save New Lens Profile Defaults" from the Setup popup menu, which will remember your choice of profile for the given {camera,lens} combo. That way you won't have to keep selecting the profile manually in the future.
    Or you can create a preset.

  • Tokina 12-24 F4 Lens Profile for Canon 500D

    Dear Adobe Support Specialist,
    I found a Tokina 12-24 lens profile for Canon 450D in this Forums but I am using Canon 500D.  Please kindly advise if it works on 500D too. If not, will there be one soon for download.  Look forward to your soonest reply

    Hi
    I'm not the Adobe support specialist, but I made a lens profile for my Tokina11-16 by using EOS kiss F.
    The profile works well on my EOS kiss X3 too. Thus I guess the prolide you found is also fit your 500D.
    Why not try the profile you found. you can check the profile works well or not.
    kiss F = 1000D, kiss X2 = 450D, and Kiss X3 = 500D.
    Regards

  • Which project settings for project for Canon Powershot Video Editing?

    Which project settings for project for Canon Powershot Video Editing?
    I want to edit video taken with a Canon Powershot SD 550 taken in NTSC 640 x 480. When I start a new project, which project settings should I be using? Also when exporting the project to view on a computer should I stick with the AVI or will MPEG or another universal format give me better end quality?

    Hunt,
    This user has two thread topics here that are identical to ones at the forum which I frequent. Early on I  downloaded video from the Canon Powershot that he says he is using for the basis of my comments. So, I have put that video through gspot myself. Since the user is going between the two forums (mostly here), I did not want anything lost in the back and forth. The goal is to help attainment of the goal. That is why I am including comments at both locations:

    Rotation Thread
    http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52298
    The user has gotten back to me on the video rotation issue, thanking me, but telling me that another workflow was identified...and, as I note, generously shared with both sites. I am in the process of personally checking out what he said worked for him in that regard. However, the user has not gotten back to me on the topic of project settings.
    So to expedite matters, when you get a chance, could you please check out my comments in that thread? I would be interested in your perspective on the matter and what I wrote.

  • Where can I download ICC profile for Canon paper?

    Hi,
    I bought a new MacBookPro and suddenly the ICC profiles that used to be in my Canon Pixma Pro 10 are missing.  I'm specifically looking for: Canon luster, platinum, museum etching.  Can anyone point me to the right direction please?  Thanks.

    I am having a similar problem.  I had previously printed on my new Canon Pixma Pro 10 to Canon Photo Paper Pro Luster from my MacBook Pro retina running 10.10.3.  I upgraded to Lightroom 6.  Now I do not have the ICC profile for the luster paper available under Color Management in LR6.  I downloaded and reinstalled the print driver but that didn't give me the profile.  All of the ICC profile downloads that I can find are for other vendors' papers.  The link in ssprengel's post takes me to the driver download page but it doesn't give me the Canon paper ICC profiles. Help.

  • Info for requesting geo-tagging for Canon Powershot cameras.

    I currently have a Canon powershot which I love, but was hoping to upgrade to a newer model that supported geo-tagging..
    I just called Canon customer service and asked if there were any current or future models that would be including this feature..
    The rep said he is not given any info on future models but that no current models offered geo-tagging.
    He did say that my call would go down as a feature request and if enough people are looking for this feature it will be included soon..
    So for what it's worth, if you are interested in requesting this feature, Canon's number is 1-800-652-2666..
    I would really like to be able to put places to work without entering manually.

    If you have an iPhone, you can use it as a geologger using an app called GeoLogTag. I'm doing this for a couple weeks now and it works great. The app exports GPX files, that can be used with geotagging apps like HoudahGeo.
    With this workflow, you can keep you current Canon Powershot camera, if you have an iPhone 3G of course.
    Another feature of GeoLogTag (off-topic now) is that it can geotag Flickr photos directly from within the app, which is pretty cool!
