For each camera model it supports, Camera Raw uses color profiles to process raw images. These profiles are produced by photographing color
targets under standardized lighting conditions and are not ICC color profiles.
ACR version These profiles are compatible with older versions of Camera Raw and Lightroom. The version corresponds to the version of Camera
Raw in which the profile first appeared. ACR profiles offer consistent behavior with legacy photos.
Adobe Standard Standard profiles significantly improve color rendering, especially in warm tones such as reds, yellows, and oranges, from earlier
Adobe camera profiles.
Camera Matching Camera Matching profiles attempt to match the camera manufacturer's color appearance under specific settings. Use Camera
Matching profiles if you prefer the color rendering offered by your camera manufacturer's software.
BothAdobe Standard and Camera Matching camera profiles are intended to serve as a starting point for further image adjustments. Therefore, use
the profiles in conjunction with the color and tone controls in the Basic, Tone Curve, HSL / Grayscale, and other image adjustment tabs.
To manually install camera profiles, place them in the following locations:
Windows XP C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
Windows Vista C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
Windows 7 C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
Mac OS /Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles
