Using custom curves for jpg format

8 posts
  1. Hello

    does anyone use custom curves when shoting in jpg format?

     

    where can i find curves like vevia.ntc and provia.ntc?

     

    tahnk you in advanced

  2. I manufactured an S-shaped custom curve and uploaded it. That is a simple way of approximating the appearance of transparencies. I'm not sure how to achieve a differential colour balance in the camera, except by performing a manual white balance under appropriate illumination, and storing that as a preset white balance. You would want to do it under straw-coloured illumination to approach the Velvia effect.

  4. RBernardo,

     

    I think you look for this:

     

    http://www.neebu.net/~khuon/photography/NIKON/CUSTOMPC/

     

    Download the file to your computer

    Format the card in the camera

    Go to - SHOOTING MENU , Manage Picture Control, Load/Save, Copy to Card, OK

    Turn camera off, Take card out of camera and put into computer card reader

    Navigate to Nikon, CUSTOMPC

    Copy the file to the card (copy/paste - overwrite=yes)

    Put the card back into the camera

    SHOOTING MENU, Manage Picture Control, Load/Save, Copy to camera

    OK to each file

    Happy Shooting

     

    Best regards,

    Tigershark

  6. ... you uploaded it? where can i find it?

    I made it, it's not too difficult: you can design a tone curve in Photoshop, then reproduce it in the Nikon program, then upload it into camera memory. I don't know where to find a pre-written curve, as I've never looked for one...
