There are various selection options in Exposure > Tone Curves > Mode.
You can see the difference immediately. I also read the documentation: ART raw image processor
I see a big difference in the saturation of the colors.
For my camera, the Lumix S5M2, standard is much too saturated for portraits.
Neutral is better.
Weighted Standard is also very good, but almost too little saturation, but you can increase the saturation as much as you like.
My question: Apart from saturation, what are the differences between the various modes? Do they also affect the brightness?
Surprisingly, there are differences in clipping: Under otherwise identical conditions, Weighted clips more on skin color than Neutral. Neutral, on the other hand, clips more on colored clothing, (not for all motifs).
I’m asking because I want to better understand how these modes work. However, a purely mathematical description would not help me, I would certainly not understand it.
Which Moudus avoids color shifts more: Neutral or Weighted Standard?
At the moment Neutral is my favorite, it makes the colors of the faces more pleasant, more lively, more natural. With Weighted Standard, this pleasant, almost mysterious glow disappears from the faces. On the other hand, I have fewer problems with the red cast of my camera.
Can someone describe to me in simple terms when Neutral is the better choice and when Weighted Standard is?
