Vivid colour effect in G6 - available in DSLRs?

[pawelx]

I used to have (and enjoy a lot) several image (colour) effect pre-sets available on my G6: vivid, B&W, sepia. Especially “vivid” (you can guess what it was doing to colours). Will this be available in my new 50D, when I buy it? What would be the equivalent of these settings in Photoshop – I presume this is something that can be easily achieved in post-processing?

I found this on the web:

Picture Style Menu
Standard: For vivid, sharp and crisp images

Portrait: For nice skin tones, slightly sharp and crisp

Landscape: For vivid blues and greens, very sharp and crisp images

Neutral: For natural colors and subdued images; no sharpening applied

Faithful: For colormetric adjustment of colors of subjects shot under a color temperature of 5200K; no sharpening applied

Monochrome: For Black and White images

User Def. 1-3: For user-defined Picture Styles

Detail set.: For changing parameters of the pre-defined and user-defined Picture Styles

Shoot raw, then you can sharpen, saturate, adjust contrast, color temperature, hue to your hearts content. But you can have much the same effect by bumping sharpness, contrast, and saturation in camera.
