I don't use LR and anyway Adobe seem to keep changing locations for various files like these .dcp ones. A lot of internet info is wrong about such things due to this. I just put it in a few until it worked. I was helped by a great file search program called Search Everything that gave me the folder locations for all the .dcp files (just type in .dcp into the search box of SE) on my C: drive in about 15 seconds.

With the RawStudio profile I'm finding deep reds are more saturated but with no loss of detail. Skin tones good. Pastel shades good. Reds do look more like I remember the scene.

Well, I'm still playing around and have no conclusions as yet other than reds look more real to me, but if you use Photoshop CS6 (or earlier I reckon) and ACR to convert your K-30 DNG files, then this may be worth a look.........
Go to profiles and download the 'K-30 RawStudio Advanced Profile' file. On my Win7.64 setup I created a folder called 'Pentax K-30' in C:\Users\myName\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles (where myName will be different on your PC) and copied the downloaded .dcp file into this folder.
Now when a K-30 DNG is loaded up into ACR, click on the 'Camera Calibration' tab and in the drop down in the 'Camera Profile' section, a new option called RawStudio Advanced Profile' will be available. Select that and see the difference to Adobe Standard.
It's possible that the dcp file is only supposed to be used in RawStudio, but I'm not so sure - we'll see. EDIT:- they're compatible, It implements the DCP spec of Adobe for DNG colour profiles evidently.
