Re: EOS RP picture style settings - what picture style do you use ?
1
Hallo!
My first message on this forum. Nice to meet you!
I have the RP since last week. As usual (being a jpeg shooter) i have spent some hours with test shots developed with the in-camera raw converter, in order to find a general purpose setup. (Note: DPP conversion is not quite the same of in-camera conversion)
My settings are:
- high iso noise reduction OFF
- white balance : auto with white priority (otherwise too warm under tungsten lights)
- auto light optimization OFF (ALO tends to made the final exposure unpredictable)
- picture style AUTO 7,5,5,0,1,0
AUTO picture style is to my eyes an hybrid between standard and landscape. Some web text says that also portrait hues are involved, but in my experience it's just the standard picture style with bolder blues, greens and reds. I prefer +1 saturation also, which is quite pleasing to my eyes without being overdone, and under tungsten light gives a bit of warm tones to the scene. I like also fine details colors, but the skin tones are too red imo ...
As far as sharpening, i don't use to print big or view at 100%, so big radius and strong sharpening edges coupled with masking (treshold) marginally higher than standard, gives pop to my images when viewed at regular size/distance ... most probably 100% view will show artifacts and oversharpening halos, but i don't care of what i can't see without a microscope.
At high iso, i found all settings except OFF to be too invasive, wiping all details and waxying out expecially skin and hairs details
I will be glad if somebody will try my settings and tell what he thinks about
Cheers
