Stumbled upon this like many others. I switched from Lightroom to NEO and I knew the color profile was the problem, but had no idea how to get my Oly profiles working. This is immensely helpful. The only bummer is that it seems that Luminar took out the ability to set a profile as default for a camera, which is a huge inexplicable bummer.
Anthony, I can't pay you back enough for all the great content you have put out on YT! Great information! Truly grateful! Gracias!
Well you can. There's the thanks button and the option to support the channel too 😂 All good, glad you find the content helpful.
@@AnthonyTurnham oh I have subbed and like and favorited several of your vids! To your continued success!
Thank you!!! I called canon asking how to get these profiles and they had no clue what was going on!!! Again thank you
As a newbie, I didn't even know this was a thing. Just knew I hated editing. Made the biggest difference! Gracias!
Glad I could help! Hopefully I can make you a convert and get you enjoying the art of editing 😀
Excellent presentation. Very helpful! By watching several of your videos you have convinced me to purchase Luminar Neo. Thank you!
Thanks Sandip! If you decide to go ahead with Neo you can get a discount here: bit.ly/NeoSale and you should also be able to save a bit more with the code ATNEO10. Hope that helps 🙂
Another great series of tips! Thnx Anthony!
Thank you for this!!! This is difficult information to find. Also, your daughter is just delightful and must be a joy in your life!
Thanks mate. Yes she is. I took her for a day up the mountains for skiing ⛷️ today. Quality time together.
Bit late to this - stumbled on it when watching your Astro Edit video - but I can't believe how much of a game changer this is! I have a fairly modest Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III, and natively the ORF format isn't recognised by Luminar Neo for Develop profiles, but I run all my ORF files through DXO Pure Raw anyway, and the resulting files are recognised. I went through the process following this video, and the difference when applying the E-M10 III profile was incredible! From flat and washed out to something that looked fantastic even without any further edits.
The Astro video itself then helped even more. I'm guilty of using a lot of presets in Neo to get the base effect for an image prior to tweaking the edit, but starting from scratch with the correct profile and following the video gave much more natural results. Thanks so much for all your hard work - easily the best Neo resource on TH-cam 👍
I have been waiting for so long to find out how to get a custom DCP. You did it Anthony! I downloaded my Canon DCP and it changes everything! I have two more cameras to download but the difference between the “Luminar Standard” and my personalized DCP is amazing. Far more than I ever anticipated!
Excellent stuff Pete!
Crazy! I didn't even know that this existed. It's the second video that I've seen from you and it's amazing how well you explain things. Thanks a lot.
Thanks. That means a lot!
THANK YOU,A.T. Just upgraded my camera to a R6mk11 been a while since I updated my profile and totally forgot. Keep up the great work.
Your method is comprehensive, thoughtful and easy to follow. Great work on numerous videos. Thank you as well for this one!
You're very welcome Richard! Thanks for watching.
Thank you! I finally got around to downloading the profiles, and lo and behold! all the profiles for my RX100vii showed up beautifully. This really makes a lot of difference!
This is really useful information Anthony! You're the only TH-camr I've seen who is talking about this most important foundational step. Thanks for stepping us through and for providing all the directories.
Thanks Carl. I really appreciate this. I haven't done a video for a while and it's kind words like yours that give me motivation to get sharing again. 🙏
Your vids are always so helpful. I have now added my Sony A7C II (ILCE-7CM2) profiles...thanks to you, Anthony.
Love it, just asked a couple of days ago for this video, and here it is. You're quick!
Thank you Anthony! Great video as always. This was so helpful on how to find and load the camera profiles, making such a difference in editing.
Thank you! My high school football photos always looked like they had a slight red gel effect. Getting the Pentax K1 profile instantly gave me green grass and proper uniform colors.
I'd stepped away from Neo for a bit and having been spoiled by my other editors built in camera selection I decided to try this. It worked great! The difference in camera profiles vs Neo's default is tremendous and worth the efforts of installation.
Thanks for making this easy.
Glad I could help!
This really improved the quality of the colors in my photos.
As always, highly valuable content. One of the best Luminar channels on yt.
THANK YOU!!!! - works perfectly PS you dont need to reboot LN just close the develop tag & reopen adds the profiles.
Just a heads up, ProgramData was a hidden file on my system. So didn't show till a tick was entered in show hidden folders under view
Love your videos. This info was GREAT! Not anywhere in L. Neo's manual. Thank you!!
Thank you so much for your tutorials It went from 'nice tutoet science' to simple logic! You have a new subscriber
Awesome! I've been wondering why my camera didn't have any profiles. Many Thanks.
Brilliant, you have explained it so clearly and now I fully understand how to import my profiles, thank you.
Thank you! Been wanting to know how to do this for the longest time and this worked just as you described it. Wonderful!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I have asked so many people, including Skylum and everyone said it is all done automatically. Unfortunately not for me. I thought it was because I have an entry level Canon T7i (800D). As you were scrolling through the folders I noticed the camera listed. I will follow your instructions and see what works. Love your videos!!!
Bravo Bravo....so glad you made this video. Truly appreciate all your work in making the rest of us better. Thank you!
Cheers David.
Phenomenal! Been wondering how to do this! Thank you much.
Bravo on this and all of your vids. I find your style, delivery and experience to be just wonderful. Refreshing from all the folks who talk but maybe don't deliver as much content. Truly useful stuff about so many topics. I watch them all!
Thank you Patrick. 😊
Really useful tip about Adobe's DNG tool having all those profiles. Thanks for that.
Your channel has been extremely helpful as I transition from Lr to Luminar Neo. I am MUCH MUCH happier with my photos after using Neo. Thank you for your time in putting this out here. :)
Thank you Anthony - this helped greatly.
Works like a dream Anthony! Thanks so much for this video; really pleased I've finally got these loaded. Keep doing what you're doing Anthony - best instructional videos around!!!
Thanks Simon!
Thanks. This was easier than expected because of your video! Really appreciate it.
Thanks Theo!
Video is great. I took it one step further. In the directories under c:\program data\adobe\cameraraw\cameraprofiles ... for both "Adobe Standard" and "Camera" there were hundred of camera profiles. Since I only have two cameras, I deleted all the myriad of unneeded profiles in these two subdirs. Saves a ton of space, and who knows...likely made the app a tad faster. Anthony, do you see any problem with deleting unneeded/unused profiles? ... and keeping only the profiles for my cameras?
Thank you for the video! Definitely useful for me!
Thanks so much for this video I’ve wondered for ages how to do this will be giving it a go later
And it worked thanks again!!!❤️👍
Hey Anthony, cheers from Holand for this!! very usefull, thanks...:)
Thanks for this very helpful video Anthony.
Thank you for your videos, they are awesome.
works like a charm Anthony.. many thanks.. I got my Nikon D3200 profiles installed.. and it does make a difference to the editing process. Thanks again
Really great help. It makes the files from my D300 and my z6 look a lot more like they did when I shot them. I knew I should be doing this, but all I could find on the internet was how to create these files yourself with a color card and all this messing around.
Glad it's helped Jesse! 😃
good one, very helpful. thank you Anthony
Thanks Anthony this really makes a big difference
Thanks so much for this tip. I always used profiles with Lightroom but could not get my Canon profile instaled with NEO. Following your instructions the download was recognized and now appears in the NEO menu.
What if you shoot Fuji? There are no folders for Fuji profiles for my XT3 or X100F which his odd because they exist in LR and PS so how do I get them into Neo?
Hi Darlene, you can still get them in but because of how Fuji saves it's profiles they'd need to be added as LUTs in the Mood section. They're .CUBE files that Fuji uses for mapping the colours if I remember rightly. Sorry I can't be more specific at the moment, I'm away overseas visiting family and don't have access to my normal system.
You videos are brilliant! Thank you - subscribed and a new follower...
Awesome, thank you!
Worked a treat, thanks man.
This was perfect. Thank you so much.
Hi Anthony, thank you so much for making this video. It works perfectly. I don't use PS or LR so this video was a big help
Thank you! I've been putting off doing this since I got Neo when it first came out. Thank you for all of your videos.
Aw, you're welcome Heather. 😊
You lose me as to how you find that camera models folder. Downloading the adobe product does at least give me options passed luminar default, but can't find that folder on specific cameras, which is a Sony a6600, so common model.
Anthony, thank you for this important information.
Earlier, Owls Beale added the Mac location in the user library. On some installations of Adobe Camera Raw on a Mac, the profiles may be added to the main library:
Macintosh HD>Library>Application Support>Adobe>CameraRAW>CameraProfiles>Camera
If your older camera is not listed there, a single, standard profile may be found at:
Macintosh HD>Library>Application Support>Adobe>CameraRAW>CameraProfiles>Adobe Standard
If you have an older camera and an old installation of Adobe DNG Converter, you may want to check that installation first for the profiles before installing the latest DNG Converter. I made the mistake of installing first, and I suspect replacing multiple profiles for an old camera with a single, standard file.
Hmmm...There doesn't appear to be any camera profiles from Fuji in the list. Bummer.
@@TLeightonWomack Fuji has a standard profile available. Their other more unique profiles are .cube rather than .dcp and so can't be read by Luminar anyway unfortunately.
@@AnthonyTurnham Good enough reason to not entertain Luminar Neo then I guess
@Tellurian when I'm doing work with my Fuji I just apply the profile through the mood tool as that uses .cube files as luts.
@@AnthonyTurnham might be a good choice of video to cover that for all us Fuji users. I have recently purchased Luminar Neo but not yet convinced it’s worthwhile.
Hope you have continued success with your channel
Many thanks Anthony, another secret unlocked!
Always enjoy yor videos. Thank you.
Thanks for this one too! ✌🏼
That's all well and good. I appreciate your videos and watch them regularly. But, do you know how to accomplish this on a Mac? I am stumped.
This is genius. Thank you!
Very very interesting. Thanks!
Great videos Anthony- I am relatively new to this and you manage to make potentially complex processes very easy to understand. I have loaded my Canon profiles and can now access them fine in Neo, but can you advise if there is a way to set one of these as a default profile for all my RAW files?
Thanks for convincing me about the benefit of using camera profiles. The brand new Neo ver. 1.3.0 includes profiles in Camera RAW. At least, it has them for my Sony A7R3.
Excellent video as always! Well done 😉
Thanks! 🙏
Really useful video. Nice one.
Great video. I just recently upgraded to Neo and love it!!!! The history of edit is awesome. Quick question, I own a fujifilm and there are no profiles under the Adobe app. But there is an option to create a DCP from a DNG.. HAve you used that option before?
I haven't done that for my fuji XT4. Fuji use .cube files for their profiles which in Luminar is what's used in the mood section for the LUTs. SO you can load them in there. But obviously that's not ideal as you want the profile applied at the front end of the edit. If you go the route of DCP from DNG, let me know how you get on. I'd be interested to hear more about that approach.
For some reason I don't ever remember doing this, however after a fresh install of windows and re-installing luminar, my profiles were gone. This really helped, the luminar default profile is god awful!
Great Info! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
super helpful. thank you.
Thank you very much. Which profile should I use for iphoneproraw format?
Brilliant! That helped immensely 👍
very helpful info - TY
Followed the instructions but profiles do not show up. In fact, inspecting the package contents of the adobe converter app (installed from the link you provided) the cameraRAW folder is nowhere to be found, and no sign of the profiles. I'm on MAC Sequoia and Luminar Neo 1.21. What am I doing wrong?
Briliant video. Thanks!
Glad you liked it! 😀
This is great 👍 Thank you.
Great video and thanks for this. Been waiting for ages to find out how to populate this panel. Do you know if the XT 30 is listed 🤔
From recollection, I believe so. Just as a standard profile.
@@AnthonyTurnham would the other profiles for the XT range work, as I believe they all use the same sensor.
Hi Anthony, thanks for the great videos you are sharing. The print companies offer their ICC Profile: do you know how we can upload the ICC profiles in Luminar Neo?
wonderful...I didn't realize the path is defaulted to be hidden so you can't find it by randomly looking...so close your eyes and just copy the link the good man Anthony describes after DL and installing the DNG converter and bingo, good to go (the manual steps at the end were perfect)...thx a bunch
You're very welcome!
Great video. Thank you for sharing this.
I don't know why Skylum does NOT include these profiles in their installation package, or at very least allow people to download them.
Correction:
On Mac the camera profiles are located at the following location:
[Machintosh HD]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles/
Navigating to the users/[YOUR USER NAME}/Library/Application Support/ folder just has a dummy Adobe folder.
Can't seem to figure out how to do this with a MacBook Pro. Any advice?
Fantastico. Grazie.
Hi again Anthony! Before investing in Canon, I bought a Panasonic FZ72 60x zoom bridge camera, but Adobe doesn't have this profile. Shame because it was a good camera and it also shot in RAW. I suppose it doesn't count, because it's an old bridge and not a DSLR or a mirrorless one. Regards from. Felix the Cat. 😾😾
Thanks for this video, it was incredibly helpful!
Question: How do you fit this into a workflow with presets? I've learned from Skylum that Presets don't let you apply a camera profile. They said to apply to profile manually first, then apply the preset.
However, applying the preset changes the image's Camera Profile back to the 'Luminar Default' camera profile.
You can change your Camera Profile back to the correct profile for your camera, but if setting the Camera Profile is the first thing you're supposed to do when editing a RAW photo, does changing the profile back to the correct profile for your camera - after applying a preset and it's associated 'Luminar Default' profile - mess anything up, especially since the colors in your preset build on the colors baked into your camera's profile?
Hi there! Love your work. This would be super useful. I am wondering if you would be able to help me a little please. I am a macOS user. I have download and installed the Adobe .DNG converter but I don't have the folder that you have specified "HD\Library\Application Support\Adobe\CameraRaw\Camera Profiles\Camera". When I go there I only get to "HD\Library\Application Support\Adobe\CameraRaw\" There aren't any CameraProfile folders for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Unfortunately, I'm not able to check on this as I'm running a Windows PC. Perhaps an Adobe forum might hold the answer? Sorry I cant be more help.
Probably a silly question (well 2 actually) but do the camera specific profiles differ from the generic "camera" profiles already in Neo. i.e. all those other than Luminar default? Bit difficult to tell as you can't display them side by side. Also, is there an option hidden anywhere in Neo for using the lens profiles also included in the Adobe Camera Raw?
Hi Barry. Yes camera matching is specific to your camera brand and camera sensor. Yes in the develop raw tool you have the option to turn on lens profile corrections under the optics section.
thanks. Just the 3 lens options I guess. No way of actually integrating the specific lens profiles from Adobe in the same way as the camera profiles.@@AnthonyTurnham
thanks for the video. Unfortunately, I cant find a camera profiles for Fujifilm. 😕
Hi Anthony. Have watched a number of your videos and have always learnt something. I thought when I saw this Camera Profiles video it would solve one of my biggest issue with Neo. I use the Fujifilm XT4 but having followed your video I can't find the right files for this camera. I had downloaded the DNG convertor and converted a number of photos. But still no joy. Is it me or is it that Fujifilm is out of scope?
Hi Stuart. Adobe DNG converter does have a standard profile for the XT-4. The others such as Eterna etc need to be downloaded directly from Fuji's website. They're .cube files though which are loaded via the Looks section. So a slightly different approach.
Anthony is there a camera profile for the iPhone 14 Pro Max?
Good question. I haven't seen one, but then again I haven't looked. (I'm have a Samsung phone)
Interesting. I will try it.
Hi Anthony great video, I purchased Ai after watching your video, but I think I'm right in saying it can't convert RAW is that correct please? And if so I assume Neo does convert RAW? thanks again
Hi Dave. Thanks for the question. Just wondering when you bought Luminar AI, I wasn't aware Skylum still sold it! To answer, both Neo and AI can work with raw files. You edit them in Luminar and then export them as jpegs, tiff, whatever, when you're done.
Adobe had profiles for my Nikon D5 but not form my Fujifilm XT-3. ANyway, thanks for the very clear instructions, link and paths. It was very easy to install. Do I need to do this again for Luminar AI?
Hi Joe. Fuji does it slightly differently and the profiles are .CUBE files. They can still be added but they'd appear as LUTs in the Mood tool rather than the profile section. You'd see them in the same place in LR and Photoshop as Adobe handles the two file types in the same way, or isplays them in the same area.
@@AnthonyTurnham In that they are not in the Adobe download, where does one source them? Where should one place them for Luminar Neo to find them? Thanks
One thing to note on this though. These are the profiles that Adobe has generated. They may not necessarily be the same ones you'd find from your camera. They are obviously better than the standard Neo and Lightroom/ACR profiles that come built-into those programs, but they are basically Adobe recreations as far as I knkow. So if you were to shoot say a out of camera JPEG with your camera set to Landscape, it may slightly differ than what you might see in Adobe Lightroom or Neo when you select the profile you copied from Adobe's camera profile system.
Thanks for all the great education. I have a problem with matching profiles. Ihave a MAC M1 deskto . I installed the software as instructed in the video. Not problem on the install it would seem. Neo would not open because my Profile we moved to the Documents folder. Once I got this sorted the Profiles would not open when selected leaving me with only NEO's stock profiles. Any help would be great. I found the app installed where it is supposed to be.
Mac mini M1. There is no camera profiles not even stock. Where did you click. I selected develop and there is nothing to drop down to select profiles. Maybe it got moved in a new update running Update 6 (1.6)
Brillant, thanks!
Great tips here, thank you, but for some reason the installation of the DNG Converter (Mac, OS X Monterey) did not seem to pull down any profiles. I've made the invisible library folder visible and searched high and low, but can't find any profiles anywhere. Any suggested workarounds?
Hey Anthony, love your videos. My laptop crashed and I had to reinstall Luminar Neo onto my desktop. The program runs fine but for some reason, the camera profiles for my Canon R5 are no longer there. My only option is the default from Luminar Neo. Any idea how I can get my Canon R5 camera matching profiles back so I can use them on my desktop? I checked to make sure that I have the most current version of Luminar and I do so that's not the problem. HELP!!! 😃
Thanks for another great video. Where can I get the camera profiles for my Fujifilm X-T20 and my Sony RX100 M3? Thanks.
Hi Michael. I just had a look and the X-T20 standard profile is in the following folder C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\Adobe Standard
Hi again Michael. You'd need to look for the full Sony model name. I did a quick google and saw it would be under Sony DSC-RX100 M3
It's in the camera folder. Full path is C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\Camera\Sony DSC-RX100M3
@@AnthonyTurnham Wow, thanks a million.
I'm using Adobe Lightroom as my database , when I select an image to to edited in Luminar Neo I can only export it as TIFF. I don't have a method to select a camera profile. My images have been converted to DNG's. I have the latest upgrade on a Windows 11 workstation. What' wrong? While I'm at it, why can't ICC profiles for paper be loaded also?
Profiles are only available on raw photos. That's why you won't see it as an option on a tiff. You can't export from Lr as raw to Neo because their raw tools are slightly different. So you either start on a raw file directly in NEO, or apply your profile and raw edits in Lightroom then finish off the edit in NEO. No need for a profile in this instance.
Hi Anthony,
I don't seems to see any profiles for Fujifilm XT-4... generally anything for Fuji.
Is there any place to get the correct profiles?
Thank you,
Jakub
Hi Jakub. The Fuji profiles have to be downloaded direct from their website. They end up as looks though rather than profiles because they're a different format (.cube vs .dcp) If I recall rightly.
