[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 834376, member: 48483"] I have not been a user of Fuji and I only have the 1st generation Z5. The Nikon terminology is Picture Controls for the color profiles. With the default setup, the Picture Controls are available after pressing the "i" button and selecting in the menu that appears. You can preload profiles on your memory card to use, some are already available (like B/W).
