Was wondering what everyone likes to use for landscapes as well as your vibrance and saturation settings?

Custom profiles for everything. I never use sat and vibrance in ACR. They are really weak tools compared to what can be done inside Photoshop with saturation masks.

Consider that Adobe supplied profiles vary widely across makes and models of cameras. So if a Nikon user says he prefers "camera standard", that's not the same thing as camera standard on a Canon.

I use Camera Faithful for everything. Vib +3, Sat +1 set as defaults in ACR.

Faithful or neutral. Saturation and contrast at lowest settings, sharpening 1-2 spots above lowest just to help asses sharpness.

Although I use ML to get a raw histogram to best predict exposure, I like the preview to be as neutral as possible - closer to the raw data - and what I will start with when PP. I don't need to see a rendition of the final image in the LCD, that is already in my mind when I take the shot.

If anyone asks to see my LCD, usually I don't show them, but sometimes for grins I will and they are always underwhelmed. Makes me laugh inside.

I use Neutral for everything.

I don't shoot landscapes, but often use Landscape Picture Style (in DPP, editing raw files) on portraits.

Depends on lighting.

To me, it doesn't matter since profiles don't affect the RAW files. It's only use to me, is for the review image on the back of the camera.

That said, I have mine set to neutral.

Mine is set to Standard, but I shoot raw too, so it's pretty much irrelevant.

Because the OP mentions Vibrance, a color adjustment available in LR and ACR but not in the camera's proccessing of jpgs - exported or embedded - I kinda thought he was referring to LR, including the choice of camera profile in the converter, IOW Adobe profiles or custom profiles, not Canon profiles.

Yep, I was referring to the profiles used in LR and ACR. The profiles in camera are useless to me since I only shoot RAW

For my aviation images I usually use the Camera Landscape profile in LR. I do though find that I have to adjust the Red Primary quite a bit, or I get very red looking oranges and yellows, Yellow is very common on aircraft, and one of the major UK display teams currently uses an Orange white colour scheme. The specific values are +35 Hue and -45 Saturation. The advantage of using this is that the sky's get a really nice blue colour. Given the quality of our sky's here in the UK thats quite important.
