frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Kindred Essential and Kindred Technical?
Kindred Essential comes with 2 presets, the original contrast version and its low contrast version. Essential was created to be an all around, strong option for most any lighting scenario and works in both natural light and artificial light. Essential has warmer highlights and shadows. If you like peachy warm highlights, Essential is your match.
Kindred Technical is one preset. Technical was made to be paired with reception images and or artificial light. However, many of our users are loving using technical all the time and not just for artificial light images. Technical has cooler highlights and shadows. If you like brassy gold highlights and a little more pop, Technical is for you.
Both presets have crisp clean whites and contrast but their whites and contrast are structured very differently.
What cameras work best with the Kindred Presets?
Though the preset was originated using Canon SLRs, we have tested over 150,000 images from ALL camera makes and models. The presets have been tweaked to work across the board. Some of our most successful users are thrilled to say that they finally have a preset that pairs well with their Nikon!
Is it best to under or overexpose in camera for Kindred?
Just as most do when using film, the best practice is to expose properly for your subjects and then alter the preset as needed when editing. Kindred can handle most anything you throw at it but it really shines with properly to slightly underexposed images.
Does the Kindred Technical preset only work on flash images?
Great question! We’ve found that Kindred Technical does magical things with poorly lit images, shady day portraits, and images that are asking for a little bit more punch just as well as it does with artificial light images.
Does the Kindred Essential preset work on flash images?
Absolutely! Kindred Essential is a team player and workhorse. There is something to be said for the crisp rendering Technical had when applied to a flash image, but Essential has her own magic too.
