Gamma: Cine2
Color Matrix: Cine2
Color Gain: -15
Color Phase: 0
Knee: Low
Black: Middle
Master Ped: -7
Setup Level: 0
Horizontal Detail Frequency: Middle
H/V Detail balance: 0
Sharpness: 0
NR1: Off
NR2: Off
Coring: 0
Red Gain: 10
Green Gain: 15
Blue Gain: 15
RG Matrix: 10
RB Matrix: 10
GR Matrix: 10
GB Matrix: 15
BR Matrix: 25
BG Matrix: 25

Here's a still taken with the preset:

thanks guys, I have reworked it completely...

I want to discard all other attempts at the preset I call VIVIDRGB and make this the new and final one for now:

EDIT: I changed these based on a more accurate white balance test:

Gamma: Cine1
Color Matrix: Normal
Color Gain: 40
Color Phase: 0
Knee: Low
Black: Middle
Master Ped: -5
Setup Level: 0
HDF: High
H/V Detail: 0
Sharpness: 3
NR1: Off
NR2: Off
Coring: 0
Red Gain: 0
Green Gain: -15
Blue Gain: -3
RG Matrix: 0
RB Matrix: 0
GR Matrix: 0
GB Matrix: 10
BR Matrix: 0
BG Matrix: -13

This appears to my eye as neutral (no color casts) aside from some red in the highlights which I can live with and fix in post if needed. I'm just not sure how to adjust for that directly in-camera. Special thanks to Tom Roper for kick starting the settings.

Here's a still using this on an overcast day:

Better - it was definitely green before. I'm kinda used to the look - all the cars in the Carolinas have had a decidedly greenish cast to them these past few weeks!

disjecta, how does that look where there is alot red? what would be a proper name for this preset?

I find it very difficult to create your own preset because you have to adjust and then test the camera back and forth until you find something good. its alot of work. the sticky thread that explains all the options in detail is simply written in greek because i still dont even understand most of the options.
