Default Whats your Picture Style setting in 40D?

Hi I am 40D user, I notice that the color tone of standard is a bit dry and not satisfy with that. Now I adjust to in picture style Standard to value setting 4,2,2,2 .After that setting obviously color are more attractive and more on wet look. Anybody please share your favorite setting. I have download from canon web site picture style “Clear” and it look like too much color and not look natural. Please do correct if I am wrong. Thanks

I usually use standard ... other CSers, do you guys usually change your picture style settings when shooting different stuff? anyone with examples of the difference between style settings?

If you can afford it and am in doubt, just shoot RAW and get over it. Decide later.

so which one do you like better? if you like the one with richer colour, then set your style setting as that ... however looking from your pics, the brighter effects can be done with changing of contrast and other pp functions, so if you really can't decide, then play it safe by shooting raw and play around with your photo after that ...

pp can work magic, and although some oppose against doing too much pp, but hey the technology is now available for everyone to improve their shots, so why not. hope this helps.

My personal preference is to take the setting which produces the most natural, "true to life" pictures in the given shooting conditions. ( Do note that different settings will produce different effects/results in different conditions.)

Whatever vibrance or colour settings you want to achieve can later be done in Photoshop. However, photoshop cannot reverse what the picture didn't capture!

So, if in doubt, shoot in RAW. Will save you a lot of heartache later, and possibly bring a lot of unexpected joy in the end when a bad shot can be 'rescued' from the RAW adjustments!
