Skin tones
To get great skin tones in portrait photos, Grig uses RAW 14-bit on the D7000, Adobe Lightroom 3 with Standard Camera Profile (this is the key for good skin tones) and Auto WB (automatic white balance).
If you find that the skin tones in D7000 pictures appear to have too much orange, pink or green tint for your taste, try out Swedish Hambern’s settings for nice skin tones. The Picture Control Settings are:
- Portrait
- Sharpening: +5
- Contrast: +1
- Brightness: +1
- Saturation: +3
- Hue: 0
- Active D-Lighting: Off
- Exposure compensation: -1.0 EV
