In reply to David White. David, Lightroom CC 2019 changed slightly. Camera Calibration at the bottom is now Calibration, without any profile adjustment, as you mentioned. It is now at the very top to be more convenient. You'll find "Profile" it in the Basic Panel, coming second after Treatment and before WB. There, you'll find a drop-down menu with Adobe Color Profiles but you can have more if you click on the 4 rectangles on its right

Is it possible to keep the curve,color,contrast,etc from the camera’s picture profile when importing Raw photos into Lightroom? Do I import the picture profiles into LIghtroom? Do I need to shoot Raw + jpeg and somehow sync settings? I have custom picture profiles in the User Def1,2,3, as well as mod-ing the existing profiles. Canon 5Diii.
Any information would be helpful, thank you.

Please could you help me!? This article is great BUT it does not apply to LR CC. There is no CAMERA CALIBRATION heading now. Under CALIBRATION if you look at Process, it comes up with Version 5 ( Current) There appears to be nowhere to find Canon Landscape for example….any ideas please?

Ciao, is it possible to import also the Color Profiles that I created in my Nikon D7200? I actually see only the standard color profiles…

In reply to David Halperin. Hi David, sounds like you're using JPEG files. You can only change the profile on Raw files. JPEG files have already been processed by your camera using the selected in-camera profile.

I’m using Nikon cameras, mainly D500 and D90, with the latest version of LR CC, and when I go to the Camera Calibration panel all I see in the way of profiles is “Embedded.” Can you tell me why? Thanks.

In reply to ShowHarmony. Most Lightroom Develop Presets are designed to work with photos taken on any camera. It will be very hard to find presets made specifically for a Sony camera.

Nice writeup, but how do I get specific presets for my various Sony cameras? I fiddled with the standard LR presets and it was interesting, but would expect Sony presets to be better.
