Cobalt Basic Pack

This is the starting point for our Cobalt world. These colour profiles are made specifically for your camera body and give you a calibrated colour reproduction, an expanded colour gamut posterization free with all the perks included (better shades of colours and superior skin tones). Also, a general calibrated colour signature well defined and common between all our supported camera models is something unique we offer. You can work with many camera bodies from different manufacturers and, using our profiles,  you’ll be able to achieve the same colour output from your raws.
As you can see from the graph on the right side, there is a gigantic difference between the generic profiles and ours on red areas and a remarkable expanded gamut on the others.

Our Method

– 600 samples tested (Xryte SG has 140 samples )

– Two main illuminants d65 and StdA (only on DNG basic )

– Different transformation than the Bradford model used by Adobe for the d50 calculation.

– For DNG basic the internal forward matrix is limited in the Prophoto/ Human Locus in order to avoid posterizations.

– Looktables and ICC (Capture One Basic) are adjusted to be relative to any different contrast curve.

– Transformation model CIECAM02 (better tonal separation)

– Proprietary main colourimetric stadium, to build profiles we use DcamProf.

The quality of our basic profiles has been tested to impress

Our current generation of v2.1 base profiles has obtained the Fadgi 4-star rating on Color SG target.
“FADGI is a collaborative effort started in 2007 by federal agencies to articulate common sustainable practices and guidelines for digitized and born-digital historical, archival and cultural content. 

That is the standard for all our profiles and our DeltaE is way better compared to standard profiles (as you can see on the right).

Our Modular System
(for CameraRaw and Lightroom only)

Our DNG base pack is the stepping stone for our modular system working on Adobe raw editors.
All our emulations work on all your cameras with a DNG base pack installed in your system; our DNGbasic pack is both a complete calibrated system and a starting point for endless emulations.
When you want to buy one of our emulation packs, you can be sure it will work with all your cameras already covered by our DNG basic pack installed in your system.

Cobalt Standard

The Standard profile is suitable for every situation, especially for portraits, containing a specific colour correction for skin tones.

Cobalt Neutral

The Neutral profile preserves the same contrast as the Standard, but without the colour correction.

Cobalt Flat (DNG Basic pack only)

Same as Neutral without the contrast curve, useful for studio shots.

Cobalt Repro

Our linear and calibrated profile; using this profile give you the basic linear information straight from the camera sensor.

Cobalt Repro

If you are a landscape photographer, you already know about linear profiles because you want all the available margin on editing and having the linear data from the sensor as a starting point is a huge perk.
No correction, no contrast curve, just the flat information ready for your extended editing; we add our technology for a calibrated linear profile in order to give our customers the best profile for their beloved dream machines.
