    Always struggle with too much red in skin with the 5D.
    I can adjust in the RGB curves in DPP but this is not efficient, I have to tweak the RGB for almost every single picture 2-3 times before I get something decent. Using ACR with the 4.4 profile and adjusting hue and saturation can work for some skin tones but the quality of the end result is missing something that I like in DPP. When using DPP I prefer the standard profile, the faithful looks smudgy or pasty, landscape is too vibrant to battle with and portrait is a bad joke. Also tried all the other DNG camera profiles in ACR and ended up liking 4.4 the best? For higher quality jpg in ACR setting quality to 12 manually helps when color correcting in PS.
