EF 85 f/1.8 has pretty decent IQ but relatively low contrast.

Great test shots! I mean, sharpness is overrated and all, but those are nice and shharp!! Would be interested to know the focal length and aperture used. Also what you did by way of post processing. ...

And last - but certainly not least - we (finally!) now have camera matching profiles for recent Canon bodies!! After playing with them this evening I can honestly say they were worth the wait. I ...

Once again, a tour de force of a review! Canon (and dpreview) should be paying you for these posts if they are not already. Beautiful images - really beautiful images. And actually the bokeh looks ...

I'm doing a happy dance here going back over photos with the new profiles. So lovely and rich. I would say the results are more pleasing results, to my eyes, than DPP - just like in the good old days.

I’m having same problem as the other poster. Profiles saved in the camera matching set of profiles cannot be right click deleted in Lightroom. For Lightroom classic I can just delete them from the ...

I'd have been pretty annoyed if I were in your shoes also. I got lucky, I guess, because I saw people post that there had been a BF deal on C1 12 the previous year, with free upgrade to C1 20. I ...

Yeah there was a lot of angst about the discount and even more about the ask to get people to sign up sight unseen. A customer relations disaster by all accounts. I’ll be waiting till BF this year ...

They have had BF deals for at least two years now where the discount has been bigger than the previous-release discounts - could be more than that but I wasn’t in the market then.

Like others have said the same could not be said about the R5 because there is not a directly matching cr2 file-using Canon camera that can be ported to it. Like I also said I have a whole bunch of ...

The Color Fidelity profiles already get very close, I’d say. The Adobe camera matching profiles (well the Camera Standard one) for Canon were not so popular I don’t think necessarily because they ...

These are widely available as ported 6D mark ii profiles.

Camera Standard (vast majority) and Camera Faithful (occasionally) are the only ones I have ever really found useful over the years.

Just on this question, the camera matching profiles have never been a perfect match - they’ve always had their own look. A nice one at that! I must have downloaded a couple of dozen alternative ...

Praise be! I honestly didn’t think we’d ever see this day. Wonderful news. Just as I was getting used to using C1 as my primary converter. Hmmmm. Can’t wait to see how these look on my files.

It seems that there was an absence of leaks because there was pretty much diddly squat to be leaked! Faster DeepPrime is nice to have of course. And linear gradients are long overdue. But this ...

Your original crop looks better to me than the upsized version viewing at full screen view, just FWIW. Stunning image btw.

Ignore button is your friend

It stays at the over-ridden setting for me. It probably defaults back to auto after the metering timer expires. But if you want to get it back to auto immediately just do a quick double press of ...

Lightroom and Lightroom Classic perform essentially flawlessly - i.e. with zero lag when moving sliders - on my  16 GB M1 MacBook Air - - - even when editing 45MP files on a 5K 27 inch screen. It ...
