Do I need a minimum number of color adjustments (i.e., color control points) to get useful results out of the DNG Profile Editor? How many color adjustments should I use?
We recommend using at least 3 color adjustments in PE. It is possible to use a single color adjustment in some cases to get the desired result, but most of the time a single adjustment will affect other colors that you don’t want to modify. One or two additional color adjustments should suffice to “lock down” these colors that you wish to leave alone. See Tutorial 1 for more information about specifying color adjustments. In most cases only a handful of color adjustments (e.g., between 3 and 10) are needed to get great results. Photographers with a critical eye for color are welcome to specify additional color adjustments (up to the built-in maximum limit of 250).
