Camera Raw

Last updated 1/10/2010

If the only profile in the Camera Profile menu is Embedded, it means that you have selected a TIFF or JPEG image.

Adobe Standard and Camera Matching profiles work only with raw images.

Note: If you have selected a raw file and Adobe Standard and Camera Matching profiles do not appear in the Camera

Profile pop-up menu, download the latest Camera Raw update at

www.adobe.com/go/learn_ps_cameraraw.

Customize profiles using the DNG Profile Editor

To improve color rendering or customize a camera profile, use the stand-alone DNG Profile Editor utility. For

example, use the DNG Profile Editor to correct an unwanted color cast in a profile or to optimize colors for a specific

application, such as studio portraits or fall foliage.

The DNG Profile Editor and documentation for it are available as free downloads from the Adobe website at

www.adobe.com/go/learn_ps_dng.

Important: Leave the Camera Calibration tab sliders set to 0 when adjusting camera profiles with the DNG Profile

Editor.
