Lightroom 4.0 & Hablad Settings

[Arthur]

Hasselblad sent me a "Bulletin" several weeks ago explaining how to create a Lightroom 3.5 profile which would enable Lightroom to obtain a more Phocus "like" gradation.  The changes suggested were as follows:  Blacks and brightness should be respectively +2-3 and +30-35 respectively.  Exposure  should be + 1/3rd an F stop.  I did this in Lightroom 3.5 and it all worked quite well.  My problem is in using Lightroom 4.0.  The Hasselblad lenses are all recognized but 4.0 has no exposure adjustment slider and the use of Adobe Standard 2012 clearly is a bit different then version 3.5. Does anyone know the correct settings for Lightroom 4.0 to mimic the initial results of Phocus? Since Hasselblad is now shipping their H4D cameras with Lightroom 4.0 I would expect that someone might have already solved this problem.

Many thanks in advance,  Arthur

I am not sure if it is actually a Hasselblad 'problem', you described it as 'more Phocus like' and 'mimic the initial results of Phocus'. I think it is more about understanding the way that the new Lightroom handles things so maybe a guide will come out when there is a consensus about it and LR4 has only been out a short while. Here is an article on the web that does a better job of describing the changes in the development process since the removal of the 'brightness' slider between LR3 and LR4 than I can.
