[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 662634, member: 25095"] So yes, setting Picture Control has no effect on the RAW file, as everyone mentioned. However ... it does affect the JPG preview that's embedded in the RAW file, and it's that preview image that's used for histograms on the camera ... as I under stand it. So the Picture Control profile will affect the histograms, and if you're using the histogram in the field to adjust your exposure, THAT can change your starting point for the RAW file. For that purpose alone, unless I'm needing the ability to quickly deliver JPG sooc before I can edit the RAW files, I'll set my Picture Control to flat. [/QUOTE]
