Late to this discussion...is it possible to "layer" in LR a film profile from another provider (RNI in my case) on top of the base profile from Cobalt?
I'd like to try the better starting point for colour accuracy from Cobalt (and hopefully the better skintones) but I'm not ready to replace my RNI film emulations yet).
I could do it in PS or Affinity, but I was wondering if there's any way to stay in LR and start RNI from a different base colour interpretation... I guess not?
I do this a lot, but sadly it's indeed not possible within LR.
For those who don't know how to do it:
In LR I pick a base profile with the best skintones. I then take it to PS and open the camera RAW filter. There I can apply any of the RNI profiles, on the photo that already has the nicer base profile.
A quick sooc example to show it for those that might be interested:
This is an RNI Portra 160 II profile applied straight in LR:
This is same RNI Portra 160 II profile, but applied in PS on a photo that had the Cobalt Neutral profile applied in LR first:
There's a clear difference, I prefer the second one.
For me this shows how useful the Cobalt base profiles are even if you want to use other film packs.
