Adjust the color calibration for your camera
Lightroom uses two camera profiles for every camera model it supports to process raw images. The profiles are
produced by photographing a color target under different white-balanced lighting conditions. When you set a white
balance, Lightroom uses the profiles for your camera to extrapolate color information. These color profiles are the
same ones developed for Adobe Camera Raw.
You can adjust how Lightroom interprets the color from your camera by using the controls in the Camera
Calibration panel and saving the changes as a preset. You may find it useful to photograph a standard color target
under the lighting you want to calibrate.
Select a photo, and then set options in the Camera Calibration panel.

Sets the version of camera profiles to use for your camera. ACR 3.0 and higher are newer and improved
Profile
camera profiles for some cameras. If you don't see ACR 3.0 or higher, your camera's profiles didn't require updating,
and ACR 2.4 represents the latest profiles. If both options are available, you might want to choose ACR 2.4 for
consistent behavior with legacy photos. Embedded indicates that the current file (likely TIFF, JPEG, PSD or DNG
format) has an embedded profile.
Corrects for any green or magenta tint in the shadow areas of the photo.

adjust the hue first, and then adjust its saturation. Moving the Hue slider to the left (negative value) is similar to a
counterclockwise move on the color wheel; moving it to the right (positive value) is similar to a clockwise move.
Moving the Saturation slider to the left (negative value) desaturates the color; moving it to the right (positive value)
increases saturation.
Save the adjustments as a Develop preset.
