Stefano Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Looks nice. My daisies are more violet than how they appear to you, it may be a combination of reach, white balance and sensor's response. Link to comment
nfoto Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 If the raw converter assumes a "normal" colour profile, the resulting false colours can be all over the place. Even when one has conducted "UV white" balance off PTFE. I prefer setting the colour profile to "undefined". Link to comment
Yon Marsh Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 It's all new to me, used a raw file just used daylight profile.Exported an extended range dng file from this to sort out an extended colour temp range via DNG profile editor, then once applied this profile to the original raw file, then used the white balance off a bit of ptfe. Is this basically the normal way to do this in the field? If there is a normal best practice way.Thanks Link to comment
Andy Perrin Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I think Andrea posted her method in the stickies? Link to comment
Andrea B. Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I'm always surprised how UV-dark the daffodils are! Your white balance looks ok. The false "blue" we get can be more towards the violet side or more towards the blue side because white balancing depends on so many different factors. Link to comment
Yon Marsh Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 Thanks, was not expecting that darkness either from the daffodils. Link to comment
nfoto Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Many yellow flowers are UV dark. This can be seen all over the Plant Kingdom. Link to comment
