UPDATE!
What can I say? Less is more? Hahaha! This is a much more simplified PP3 set. I have been playing with different NR settings for the past few months & have modified the basic ISO PP3 with new settings.
All of them have the noise reduction set to
RGB Conservative & are using the
Automatic global setting. Keep in mind that each ISO PP3 has other NR settings that work for each ISO. You do have the option of setting the noise reduction to
L*a*b* as well. The
False color suppression steps has been turned on from ISO 3200 going forward. The
TSM - PP3 Optional - Noise Reduction contains some more PP3 files that add additional noise reduction.
I combined the previous exposure & color folders to a new folder called
TSM - PP3 Optional - Color & Exposure. If you install the 19 provided camera .dcp files into the
dcpprofiles folder in RawTherapee, you can use the
Adobe DCP Tone Curve - Flat PP3 file to default your image to the
Pentax Natural image tone instead of using the generic
Auto-Matched Tone Curve feature.
Keep in mind that images shot with the D-range settings turned on in the camera might have some exposure issues.
Always remember that you need to apply a basic ISO PP3 file first before you apply any other PP3 file or change settings. You can make processing rules in the
Dynamic Profiles Rule section in
Preferences. There is a
dynamicprofile.cfg file that has some basic rules already set up for you. It's an optional thing to install, but it will overwrite your current settings if you replace it.
And there you have it in a nutshell. Try them out before you decide to delete your current ones. I'm having issues compiling a RawTherapee build at the moment, but I'll get around to it once I fix it. Have fun!
