Not sure, but isnt this quite easy to do in post and also in post can get more different range of isolated colors.

If you have RAW video - then yes, but from DSLR (it is not so easy) and second, you will be in big trouble on half color tones and shadows in post.
Footage from DSLR's are flat, compressed video - this mean that in post you will need to do lot af hard work, like "create masks, layers and you will be in big trouble with human skin - it has Red, Yellow and pink color tones + 100 and 1 step to create look like my example. :)

P.S. Before shooting with this picture style - you need ajust White balance to get a great results!

i have also profile for green screen shooting - it take out all shadows on green and make it perfect green - "for post production this is most wanted feature"
i give to this profile some final touch and also make a release. ;)

Great idea. One could also use this for preview and let ML switch to a different picture profile when recording.

cosmo, does this mean using this picture style "frees" up space for the highlights/blacks?

3. Once the capture window opens, click the camera icon, and then click "Register User Defined style".


*A different screen is displayed when connecting with other than

Thanks for clearing it up! Any possibility of more isolated colors picture style for like blue? Especially be cool if for instance filming certain companies isolated the company colors.

Hey Cosmo since you are the expert picture style maker here , I have another request if that is not a problem, as for ISO25 setting there are a problem with it as it will give a pinkish cast if you use it. Would you think you be able to make a picture style that would clean it. That be a big help for the community so people would be able to use that low iso with less of a problem and dont need to color correct afterwards. Try out the iso25 and see if you could do it. Thanks in advance m8  :)

Hi Cosmo!

Thanks for your very cool Styles!  :-*

Any Bleu one, ARRI and GreenScreen ones ?

We're impatient to see your creations!   ;)

Does anyone know how and if it is possible to create a picture style that converts the images to a negative?  I am using my camera to make digital copies of a 35mm negative and want the camera to automatically convert the image to a positive.

Thank you very  much, ax.
I've been waiting a long time for this, but never got the hang of making my own picture styles. A little color shift or altered contrast is not that hard, but something extreme like this is beyond my skills.
