JPEG settings

[Tom H.]

Hi there all, apart from the usual "find your own taste in settings" advice, do any of you have any recommendations when it comes to settings for the film profiles? I previously only used the raw files, but with the improved jpeg engine, I will be shooting jpeg+raw as from now on.

 

Feel free to chime in with settings and examples if you please.

So far I am running -3 noise reduction and the rest generic till I notice somethign I don't like.

I never liked the NR in the previous sensor for JPEG so I just turned it off/down, all good so far.

I tend to drift to the following for my "generic" setting at the moment: highlights +1, shadows +2, noise -2, sharpening +1, color 0. Seems a good compromise for Velvia and Provia. Still needs tweaking for the other colour profiles. For the Acros ones it's same, but with grain at low for the moment. I never liked the old Monochrome ones, I don't use those.

I have highlights -1, shadows -1 that gives me more control over clippin / blocking. I always can push them a bit internaly if I see that I'll stand safely within DR.
