Re: Leica M8/M9/X1 Picture Thread


I thought this may be interesting to share thoughts and feedback, in using ACR raw conversion trying to get the right skin tones. With the M9 auto WB and skin colour is a challenge. Appreciate everyone\'s input I know this is very subjective When I am using ACR, using the embedded profile and Auto WB in ACR, I usually end with skin tones that have too much magenta, and leaves the skin unnaturally red and blotchy.

Using a combination, of what I have read, the best and most natural skin tones I have found was using these settings:

in ACR RAW: Using embedded profile, and ACR Auto WB if no gray/white available

Hue:
Orange -18
Yellow -18
Blue +18

Saturation
Magenta -40

Here is an example from last night, with these adjustments. Appreciate your thoughts and methods
