EOS 90D: Do you all tweak the Picture Style settings?

[Ramsden]

Hello 

EOS90D here across the pond.

I was recently advised to try turning off lens aberration in some situations. I have to admit to not knowing anything about this feature, so had a go, nervously digging into the inner workings of my camera. It's all part of my ongoing learning process, and getting to know my camera. Great results, and learned a lot.

No obvious connection, but I then started looking at Picture Style settings.

So my question is to the more experienced folk out there, and whether any of you tweak the settings, and secondly, do any of you use the User Def 1, 2 and 3. If so what innovations have you come up with and are you willing to share them?

Hands up, I wouldn't know where to start at the moment.

Regards

Its night time here, so can't test this out, but I just zeroed all User Def 1.

So that should test the inbuilt technology.

Watch this space.

"AUTO" is not a defined Picture Style. When it is selected the camera analyzes the scene and selects the various parameters based on its analysis. This is different than one of the defined Picture Styles which always apply the same settings.

I'm lazy.  I shoot RAW and use whatever the default settings are and then adjust in DPP.  Typically I manually correct white balance.  Sunlight or Cloudy seems to me to give more more accurate than results "Auto".  And typically if it's a landscape I choose Landscape.  Every now and again I'll choose Fine Detail for a shot where that's important.  99% of the time I do what I would have done in the camera, but don't do it there.  If I want monochrome I choose Monochrome. 

If I had to customize/set up/choose styles in the camera I would have to remember something and/or remember to change something.  That would almost certainly result in an "oops" for me.  I would probably be shooting wildlife or family with the picture style set to "Landscape" and shots in the sunshine set to Cloudy.

Great post. Appreciate your honesty, and speaking personally, I can recognise the problem of having too many things to remember. But its great fun and ever engaging challenge.
