Justin, Again, I thank you for your response. I think serifl are on to something good, and that above all has made this so frustrating! A little disclosure, even if not necessarily good news, is most often better than ignoring the problem!! In this day of the internet there is a strong expection of communication to be timely! I feel sure for the most part we all understand the pressures of a release of this magnitude!! Keep up the good work and please keep us posted!!

Justin, Many thanks for your response. I think the first issue is that rather than being ignored, we should have been told the dropdown was disabled. This is not disclosed on the tutorials which shows it as now functioning and with all the inquires, this is the first advice of the issue and the question has been raised for some extended time. I can only speak for myself as to expectations and I am a professional user, but I would expect something comparable to the ACR/LR/ C1 camera choices. If not, at least a user friendly way of making our own usable profiles if it applies to our work flow. As was discussed on another well known forum earlier today, If AP is soley relying on Apple camera profiles, a very large work in progress is in store to try to create a PC version of the application. I was primarily a Canon user until 2 weeks ago at which point I made a switch to the Nikon system. This means for me, I have files, and will have files for some extended time that I must be able to process in a timely, accurate manner across camera platform for my clients. Profiles and the ability to create profiles to match each other are of paramount importance to me. Others use may very, but most if not all users are at some point tied to color profiles/camera profiles/ and calibration of their monitors all coming together to produce the desired digital or print file. Thank you once again for your response.

Well, I give up. I have been trying to get an answer to the profiles questions since using the betas. An online search will show questions regarding the profiles clear back to February with absolutely no acknowledgements or answers from serif. I find it sad that a company wanting to ursurp users from PS and other imaging products will spend 5 years persuing such a goal, launch the product and then fail to respond to clients regarding an issue regarding the very files we are developing with that product. It is as though the question of profiles is the 800 lb gorilla in the room. Assuming the tutorials are accurate, there is obviously a bug for at least some users as the dropdown menu Camera Profiles does not provide any of the options shown in the softward tutorials. If some users have not had this issue, even that would have been nice to know so as to help determine in which direction the problem might lie. Sadly, I have a studio to run, and I have already spent more time than I can spare on AP. I am very sorry about this as I did see some great potential or would not have persued the matter. I will consider the cost of purchse and the hours spent on the betas as an investment in the future and hope that the future will show that to be a worthwhile endevour. For now I will remain with CS6, LR6 and C1. I wish you all well in your efforts.

I have the same question. I have previously requesed information on this to no avail. Respectfully, will a moderator or someone who has an answer please respond. There is NO information in the Camera Profile dropdown. I have watched the just released Tutorials for AP several times and they clearly show items listed in this tab in the menu. I am on OSX 10.9.5 if that is of import. Please advise. mjazzphotoz

I would think so. That's why I am asking. Is AP going to have or does it have profile for each camera? They must have profiles or they couldn't process raw files. I really do not want to process files for clients without knowing how or having control of color processing of raw. RGB and sRGB don't really tell us much. I am gathering from your comment that nothing has changed?? Thanks for your reply.

I have been testing the beta and have been impressed with the latest iterations. However, I have one question which I notice others have asked and it is still not answered. Perhaps with the launch of the sw we now have an answer. Does the camera profile for the raw processing actually work now or is it still just blank. I am not going to purchase this without a definative answer due to my studio processing needs. Can someone who has the release please advise? I have files from Canon 5D III as well as Nikon D810 and D750. Thanks! mjazzphotoz
