What Rich says is true.

All RAW files need a bit of a 'boost' compared to a JPG.
Also different cameras and electronics do different things in the way they process.

In Bibble5 I used to use Sharpening = 190, Saturation = +20 and Vibrance = +30. In Aftershot Pro same software slightly different colour management engine I used Sharpening = 190, Saturation = +00 and Vibrance = +10.

That is for my D700, D3 and D3S images.
I use slightly different settings for the D300
Different again for the X100 files.


On some occasions very flat lighting, I would boost Saturation and Vibrance more. In studio I frequently zero everything as that works better.



I am just looking to move over to Capture Pro as my main RAW processor so I will have to experiment again to get everything right.
