Hello! 🙂

I have a big big question. Why I can't use Adobe Colour or Adobe Standard in Lightroom for Nikon Z7II?

Instead I can use those profiles for Nikon D610. The details in DSRL looks different and more appropiate with the camera. Instead, the profiles for mirrorless are desaturated and dull. For Nikon Z7 i use camera standard profile but the edit is different. I like to edit more the dslr on adobe colour profile. The details look different in edit and the kelvin scale is different too... The lens i use is sigma 35 art 1.4.

First photo. with dslr

Second. mirrorless

You might want to reproduce the same screenshots as in my reply above. And show how yours are different. Nice big full screens.

Perhaps I misunderstand??

Hello!

Thank you for your response. I will show you how it looks at me. In the library module looks the same and in the develope the colour of adobe is unsaturated and the camera matching mode it's more colourful. When I edit the adobe colour profile it looks ugly and different (the last image) than i edit a photo from dsrl camera with the adobe colour profile. Finally, I can't use the adobe colour profile because it spoils the image. In dslr camera the details looks good and good editable instead mirrorless camera. What do you think?

Ah, I see that I misunderstood. It is not that the Adobe Standard profile does not show up, but that you do not like the results.

Yes, for many users, the standard Adobe profiles may not be what they want. And yes, for some cameras, the Standard Adobe Profile may be junk. By the way, the Adobe Standard Profile can be separate file for different cameras, Some cameras get a dedicated version, usually after the previous one failed miserably.

Personally, in my workflow, changing from the Standard Profile, to a Camera matching profile, is one of my initial steps

Reset (yes, overkill)
Apply Preset Classic-General-Zeroed (A Fuji X user thing) to get rid of any left over Adobe defaults (sharpening comes to mind, it is a Fuji X thing))
Apply a Camera Matching Profile (I absolutely detest the Adobe Standard ones)
Apply correct general WB (typically Daylight, as opposed to As Shot, yes a bit OCPD)
Apply Lens correction
Apply Basic Exp, Whites, Blacks
Accomplish any Removals (dust spots, people I do not want, etc)
Rethink the overall exposure, and adjust
move on to other edits as desired

note that I used to include a touch of Tone curve in that. Now days I leave Tone curve alone until I am in the masking, where the tone curve gets applied individually where I desire.
