Title: defaults bound to ISO
Post by: Robert-Peter Westphal on May 21, 2013, 05:01:26 pm

Hello,

I've got one question :

When I choose in the settings menu  'default bound to ISO', does that mean that all defaults are bound to ISO, also when they have nothing to do with ISO like camera lens corrections or such setting ?

Defaults are defaults, you don't get to pick and choose. So before you push the button be sure every parameter, from top to bottom and back again, is where you want it to be. But ISO-bound default sets can have the same default in non-ISO connected parameters. Presets are selective, you have to check off a list.

Hi,

thanks for the answer - although it is not wait I expected / hoped to read.

So, I will change my defaults and remove the denoise based on ISO, so that I can remove this setting at all.

many thanks and best wishes

Defaults can differ per ISO. So you could build a suite of Noise Reduction presets which can be a specific default per ISO if so setup.

Thanks for this information, but, as far as I understand, every default is bound to ISO, so also are things that aren't dependant on ISO like lens profiles and so on.

This is not what I want - I want to apply default lens profiles to all of my images, but different noise reduction dependant on the ISO of the image.

I fear that this would be impossible to do atthis stage.

Best wishes

Robert

It's not impossible, only tedious! You have to set the defaults for every ISO value the camera is able to output. If you have to specify more than a few things that deviate frome the standard default, that is prone to error and can take some time - and of course you shall have a series of images with all these ISO values to create the defaults.

A copy/paste feature would be quite useful imho (or a command to modify all the defaults for the camera, after which you'd edit the noise/sharpen settings).

Or at least toset defaults for ISo 100-400, 500-100, etc. .

Ok, many thanks for all your help. I decided to remove this option and set the denoise manually, but have all other chages to the defaults automatically assigned.
