What is the best neutral setting?

[mikewest13]

Hi there,

I'm trying to figure out what is the best neutral preset so I can have the widest range to play with later on for color correcting purposes. I'm a little hesitant about using one of the presets and not liking it later on.

What preset if any is closest to natural settings?

Just try turning the presets off, I suppose.

I've found VIVIDRGB has enough "neutrality" for me. I've had nice results after crushing the blacks and bumping the highlights and mids if necessary. I'm currently giving VISION a shot, though once you go with it it seems you're a bit more stuck with that look.
