Forgive me if my naiveté is obvious, but if Adobe is trying to mimic the basic profile each manufacturer designates as default to render the image visible after import is it possible that the scale or zero point assigned by each manufacturer differs? That is, as ACR interprets what Pentax assigns as “0” in default rendering may be equivalent on the ACR scale to a Nikon “40” to achieve equivalent amounts of default profile sharpening. As it is raw data imported one can then add or subtract sharpening to form their own desired profiles or import settings.

I can not answer this, because I use not a ACR. This only can answer users, which have this ACR and than they can say....yes, for Nikon the ACR default for sharpness is 40 and for Pentax it is 0. I can only say that my LR use a sharpness amount of 25 as a default for my Pentax RAW files....but not a sharpness amount of 0 !

best regards. KPM2
