I've never really bothered with pre-sets, but that's interesting - might give it a go - thanks

Hope you'll like it. Neither did I. Until people ask to instantly share. Lol.

But don't trust the pentax LCD so much. Just let it transfer to your laptop or phone and see the beautiful colours this camera reproduces.

Thanks for sharing, maybe I can use this as a bench mar and then adjust according to taste. Family shots are very demanding specially when they want to see it immediately on facebook, lol

If you ever shoot public figures or entertainers they often have social media managers who want instant images that they can share to to Instagram or Facebook. The K-3 in-camera RAW processing is actually surprisingly good and it has the potential to be excellent. Ricoh needs to develop software that allows you to create your own profiles on a color calibrated system and them export them to the camera. That or they need to buy a company like VSCO and allow you to integrate the film packs into the camera. You shoot RAW to one card and JPEG (you custom preset) to the second card.

Why isn't the X-rite profiler sufficient?

Thanks. I'll try

Thanks for the tip, I might try this setting on my K3 for shooting jpegs.
