The Canon digital workflow is centred round the use of Picture Styles. To help to put you in control of your colour, Canon has developed Picture Style Editor, a software program for use by photographers who want to have the most creative control of the colours in their images.

It allows you to create your own personalised Picture Style files to achieve the look you want in your images. These Picture Styles can then be applied to your images in the RAW processing or loaded onto the camera and applied at the time of shooting.

The colour in an image is made up of three components - hue, saturation and luminosity. The hue is the colour - red, green, blue etc. The saturation is how vivid the colour is and the luminosity is the brightness of the colour.

The HSL colour space can be represented by a double cone showing the three axes of hue, saturation and luminosity.

Every colour within an image can be mapped somewhere on this double cone-shaped graph by a series of numerical values indicating its precise co-ordinates. Once you can pinpoint the co-ordinates of a pixel on this graph, you can easily adjust them to get exactly the colour you want to your precise adjustments.

The series of ‘how to’ videos you can easily access below will talk you through how to using Picture Style Editor. But before you begin, there is some housekeeping that you'll need to do on your computer to make sure that you’re seeing accurate colours.

Colour management has been covered on the CPN website here and here so it would be worth reading those articles too if you haven't done so already.

You need to start by calibrating your monitor. Without a calibrated monitor, any adjustments you make will be worthless and simply guesswork as you will not be seeing the true colours. Using something like a Gretag Macbeth EyeOne or ColorVision Spyder to calibrate your monitor is the first step. Although it is possible to carry out colour calibration using software only, this is not as accurate as a hardware based system and as a professional photographer, colour should be of paramount importance.

Below is a series of videos that guides you through using Picture Style Editor. In the first video, you’ll see how to set up the colour space in the preferences panel and make preliminary adjustments, and from there, you’re ready to start making colour adjustments.

Adjusting colours

Saving a picture style file


Know your limits

If you look at the red square in the bottom right corner of this image it highlights the before and after values of adjustments in Picture Style Editor. The colour co-ordinates you have selected to edit is shown in the box to the left, the colour co-ordinates after editing are shown on the right, in this case, the adjustment has made the Luminosity 50, which provides a greater range for saturation adjustment.

When you’re adjusting the Hue, Saturation and Luminosity sliders within Picture Style Editor, you may notice that there are certain limits beyond which you can’t adjust the saturation. This is because of the luminosity of the colour. The simple rule is that if you want to make colours more vivid, you need to adjust the luminosity so it is closer to 50 - as shown in the screen shot below.

If the colour co-ordinates of your selected colour have a luminosity value that's less than 50, then increasing the value towards 50 will make the colour more vivid. However, if the luminosity 'L' value is already greater than 50, then adjusting the slider to bring the value back closer to 50 will tone down the colour and make it darker.

The standard setup of Picture Style Editor will help you to control this. If you adjust the saturation such that you will pass the limit of what can be achieved with the current luminosity setting, the luminosity will be automatically changed. If you are certain that you don’t want the luminosity value to change, then hold down the shift key on your keyboard while adjusting the saturation slider and you will effectively lock the luminosity value in place.

Philip: I haven’t used the new “Cinema” picture profile, yet, but Preston has and he has written this post looking at it and other ones he likes.

Canon DSLR’s: My favourite Picture Profiles

by Preston Kanak

Introduction

With the introduction of the new Cinema Picture Profile, I wanted to do a quick post on MY favorite picture styles as well as how to use/install them. Picture Profiles/Styles (PP) are meant to optimize the dynamic range in the image. One of the hardest parts about them though is picking the right one for the right job. I find that it all depends on shooting conditions and final output.

For the longest time, I had no idea that you could load PP’s onto your camera that were not pre-loaded. I also did not really think that the results would be much different. Wow, was I ever wrong!

For some shooting conditions, I find that some of the PP’s perform worse than others. At any given time, I will have three PP’s loaded on my camera to switch between.

Final output also determines which PP I will be using. For all projects that I am producing, I always shoot the flattest image I can get. However, when shooting for others, if the turn around time does not allow for colour timing/correction, I will shoot less flat (typically neutral).

Now you ask, why is a flat profile important? Well, when you bake-in the color/contrast settings into an image (pre-set PP’s), you are unable to retrieve information that would be available if you had shot flat. Say your sky is blown out, but you wish you could see some of the clouds that were there on the day. With a baked-in image style, you are not able to recover it. With a flat image, you have a much better chance of recovering the clouds — OR if you under or over-expose something, you have a better chance to recover information that would otherwise be lost.

Vimeo has developed a support group for DSLR shooters. I recommend that you have a look at some of the videos that have been added as they will definitely help!

How to Use/Install

Installing your PP’s is very simple and only takes a few minutes. For the process, you will need your camera, a USB cable, and the EOS Utility software.

Here are some short step-by-step instructions:

1. Install or update the latest version of Canon’s EOS Utility for your PC or Mac. Make sure that you have updated the software so you don’t run into problems!
2. Connect your camera to your computer via USB and switch it on.
3. Start the EOS Utility and click the menu button “Camera Settings / Remote Shooting”
4. Select the camera icon (red) and ‘Picture Style’.
5. Click ‘Detail set’.
6. In the new window that appears, Select one of the User Def. items from the drop down menu at the top of the screen, and then click the ‘Open’ button.
7. In the dialog window that opens, select the Picture Style file you have previously downloaded. This will transfer the style to your camera.
8. The uploaded profile will now reside under the selected User Def (1.3) picture profile on your camera.
9. Disconnect your camera and you should be good to go!

Special Note: Installing on 600D / t2i

ASH commented below that the 600D / t2i installation is a little different. I have included his comments below.

“For 600D it is slightly different. I loaded the picture style onto the camera using canon utility while in the P (or M) setting (in movie setting it wont let you load them).

Then once the profile is loaded, disconnect the camera from the computer, set the camera to movie mode on the dial, press the menu button and navigate to the picture style option. Click on the picture style option using the set button, scroll to the user def that you saved the picture profile to (1,2 or 3), press info, click on where it says picture style user def 1 (or your relevant user def number)using the set button, then you get two arrows up and down, using the up down buttons on your camera scroll to the saved picture profile that you desire then click set”.

General Tips

Download Picture Style Canon 2017

One of the toughest things once you have uploaded your PP’s is to set exposure and focus. Shooting with ‘dull’ or ‘flat’ images makes focus much harder and you are more likely to need an external monitoring system (EVF or Monitor) to ensure that you have sharp focus. Also, exposure is also much more difficult as you have no true black point as reference and have a higher chance of either under or over exposing your image.

Shane Hurlbut states that, when shooting with DSLR’s, it is key to have a PP that you want your film to look like dialed into your camera. He states that it is key to have this ‘mock PP’ to light and expose with. Before you start rolling, once you have set exposure, roll your slide over to the flat PP that you plan on using (be it Marvel, Cinema, or Cinestyle). By doing this, you will have more wiggle room in post. Great word of advice!

If you are still a little confused, watch the video below.

Picture Profile’s: My USER DEFINED SETTINGS

I am aware that the list below is not the complete list and varies from person to person, but they are the ones that I use on a frequent basis. I would love any recommendations for USER DEFINED settings that you may use!

NEUTRAL FLAT

Before the release of the Cinema PP, Neutral flat was one of my three defined settings. Although neutral flat is perceived differently by many, here are the settings I used.

NEUTRAL
Sharpness: 0
Contrast: -4
Saturation: -2
Color Tone: 0

Sample Video Shot using Neutral Picture Profile

Marvel’s Cine

Release Date: January 19th 2011

Another PP I use is Marvel Cine. It was one of the first ones that I tried out when I started to use PP’s, and I was very pleased with the results. It is definitely not as flat as Technicolor’s Cinestyle but offers a great alternative in some situations.

About Marvel Cine

Marvels Cine uses 10 curve nodes and is based on the Standard style as a base instead of the Neutral style. The style is slightly more colourful than other flat styles, because it uses the Standard style as a basis. I find that this profile comes in handy when shooting indoors.

Marvel Cine vs. Technicolor’s Cinestyle by Mike@Indieshorts

I know a lot of people have adopted the Cinestyle PP for virtually all shoots, but I find that Marvel’s Cine still comes in handy in some situations, especially when there is no time for grading on a project (although it should be graded!). Also, for footage that I pass off to others to colour correct, I tend to shoot with Marvel’s Cine as it is easier to bring out the colours for people unfamiliar with the Cinestyle profile on DSLR’s. That’s just my experience though and may differ for others! To download the Marvel-Cine picture style, click here.

Technicolor – Cinestyle

Release Date: April 30th, 2011

For virtually all of my shoots that I produce, the Technicolor PP is my first choice, especially when matching 5D footage with other flavours of Canon DSLR’s (7D, 60D, etc). It gives you the most flexibility out of all profiles, and I find that it comes in handy especially when shooting landscapes (ability to maintain detail in both sky and foreground).

Cinema Picture Profile

Release Date: September 7th, 2011

Windows 10 OS comes with the built-in printer drivers. Driver hp deskjet 6540 windows 10. The drivers will be installed in 2-3 minutes. Go to Control panel - Devices and printers to check the printer entry and make it as default printer if needed. Simply turn on the printer and unplug the USB cable and then re-connect the USB cable from the printer to the PC.

The Cinema Picture Profile (previously known as EPIC) is the newest of the bunch and although providing a flat image, it is unique in how it deals with contrast. Personally, I am very happy with the results so far. Will it replace my Cinestyle PP? Probably not yet, but it will definitely replace the Marvel Cine PP that I have been using for some shoots!

However, the CINEMA picture style is not free. It is priced at $19 which is not much at all and I personally think it is worth the money! (It is only $19!) To purchase the Cinema picture style, click here.

Flat PP by Jorgen Escher

Notes From Jorgen

I have developed a new type of flat picture profile for the Canon “d” series video DSLR cameras. This profile has been devised and tested using the Canon 5DmkII, a MacBeth colour card, two different calibrated light sources (3200k & 5600k soft floods), Adobe Color, Adobe Photoshop and a few software tools I have developed myself. This picture profile uses 10 S-curve node points and mathematically wraps correctly around the existing build-in Standard Profile S-Curve.

Goals were striving for correct colorimetric reproduction (no weird chroma artifacts), no gaps or bumps in the resulting curve, linear behaviour in the skin-color-exposure range and a few more points that are described in more detail by Martin Beek on his weblog http://marvelsfilm.wordpress.com. There you can download the picture profile and read about it’s uses for video shooters (I’m a colorist and mathematician, not a film maker…).

Go have a look and use it for free in your camera – happy shooting!

Crooked Path Flat

Notes from Crooked Path

– Based of the FAITHFUL profile. Faithful is just like NEUTRAL only adds a touch more saturation to the highlights and midtones, and also pulls the midtone and highlight exposure down very slightly.
– Curve is not extreme, and is very gradable in post.
– Totally removes any muddy/terracotta/plastic look to faces.
– Totally removes any noise issues (assuming you’re properly exposed).
– Default Sharpness is set at 2. This is a very subjective area. In our testing, we noted that any setting below +2 seems to almost blur the image. Anything above +2 seems to be artificial looking. +2 seems to be perfect. We’ve also noted that the in-camera sharpness is much cleaner and un-artificial looking when compared to using the unsharp mask in after effects. It is recommended that you lower only if seeing moire issues.
– Default Contrast is all the way to the left. We don’t recommend changing this.
– Default Saturation is at zero. In 8bit 4:2:0 colorspace, it’s best to keep it here and adjust in post. Brother printer install ubuntu. Lowering will cause lost information.
– Default Tone is +2. In our testing the 5d seemed to bias toward red in the skin tones. This is to compensate for that. Adjust to fit your needs.
