Mike,

(FYI the second link doesn’t go anywhere… but I think I see what you were referring to farther down on the original page?)

To me that looks like a hyper saturation (over saturated, IMHO) and a dropped black point. Pretty simple. In Aperture the default Adjustment preset “Quick Fix > Auto Enhance” might give a similar look, but you’d probably need to saturate it a bit more to really get what he’s got there.

Of my presets, if you look at the “Looks” presets, some are quite saturated, but I don’t tend to go that high. Of course the beauty of the presets is that you can use one as a starting point, tweak it, then save it as your own!

If you scroll down the page in the preset store you’ll see just under the bundle offer, two “looks” packs.

What’s the pixel width × height on the 5D Mk III?

The presets that have textures are limited by resolution. The grain textures in some of the looks are 21MP, the textures presets are I think 24MP so those will work, and the film ones are 21MP. But tell me the exact resolution of your files please?

Mike,

Then you’ll be mostly OK. The texture size in the 21MP files is 5616 × 3744, so not much smaller than what you have. What that means is if you use a preset that has a 21MP texture, then you’ll have (5760 − 5616 = 144 ÷ 2 =) 72 pixels on the wide sides and (3840 − 3744 = 96 ÷ 2 =) 48 pixels on the short sides that won’t be covered by the texture — so you’d have to crop that out.

Keep in mind this is ONLY for the “film” pack, and a few of the “look” presets that use grain textures in them. The “textures” pack are all larger (24MP I believe) and the rest have no masks at all.
