Lightroom :: Colour Shift On Re-import From PS (13.0.1) To Windows?
Oct 16, 2012
I've got strange subtle color shift from reds to yellows when I'm doing the following:
1) import my raw files as DNG into LR
2) edit them in LR
3) ctrl-E them to edit in PS
4) edit them in PS (just drawing a dot with the brush tool somewhere, so the file could be saved and re-imported to LR)
5) save (not "save as") them in PS which bring them back as tifs to LR
This final tif from PS has some color shift in comparison to the original DNG file. Nothing is edited in PS.
Furthermore:
- if I'll open to edit the resulted tif with the color shift in PS once again with the option to use LR adjustments, I'm getting color shift in PS
- if I'll open to edit the resulted tif with the color shift in PS once again with the option to open the original tif without LR adjustments, I'm getting correct color in PS, as in my original DNG

I initially noticed this problem within Lion and Lightroom 4 when printing to my Epson 4800. The colour shifts to a more pinkish hue in prints done in Lion. I'd originally thought this was unique to Lightroom, but the same thing happens to the same file when printed in Preview, so I'm assuming it has something to do with Lion or the Epson printer. I can confirm it's not a monitor calibration issue, and that my printer driver for the 4800 is the one for Lion, and that everything in Lightroom and the driver is configured identically in both versions of the OS.

I'm running LR3.6 on XP SP2 with a wide gamut NEC PA241W monitor (calibrated). I haven't noticed a problem before, but just noticed a colour shift on shots of autumn golds and yellows. I get the image how I want it, working from the raw file in the Develop module, then switch to the Loupe view in the Library, where it looks less saturated. This is still viewing the raw file, not an exported file, so it should still all be working in the internal ProPhoto colour space?

I moved from Windows to Mac. Today I imported a set of photos from my camera to my disk. After rendering all of my photos became B&W (LR4 changed color treatment of my RAW files). It surprised me a lot. I did it again and again. All my photos are B&W. I have to change color treatment in all of them. I would prefer my old importing scheme (photos are color after rendering). I did not use any preset and all oprions were as usual (only changed a name of photos).
I noticed that LR4 changed a few other options: decreased highlights by 100, increased shadow by 100, increased clarity by 50, changed tone curve to strong contrast, increase sharpening to 100, noise reduction to 40, and so on. Increadible! How can I came back to my way of importing?

Here is the story: I have batched out a folder of JPGs from Photoshop and would like to import them into Lightroom to Resize them . I'm resizing so that I can post them on my website.
I have double and triple checked to insure I have no "Develop" settings to be applied. I import the photos, and they look fine in thumbnails. Then they update one at a time with a washed out color to a bluish / b&w type color. I exported one of the photos to see if it was just a preview and sure enough the color is gone.
It doesn't happen on every import as I just resized a different folder of photos that I had downloaded from elsewhere a week ago and they worked fine. It's somewhat random. I am attaching links to before and after.

Imported into Lightroom and Exported right back out with no changes:[url].....

I do most of my work on my desktop, and all the files are held there with xmp files. On my laptop, I import the photos in their folders, but leave the files on the desktop, and I am now going to be doing that more with the new smart preview option.
The one problem I have, though, is that the pick flags are not in the metadata, and therefore don't cross to the laptop. Is there any way this can be done? I use the laptop to show others, and to allow them to choose the photos they want, so it would be good to have the flags and the colour badges, and for the traffic to go in both directions.

I have a job done in Smoke 2012 Subscription Advantage Pack and exported an RGB uncompressed QT. I can pull this pack into the same software version on any of the other 14 Smoke on macs I have and it is exactly the same as the original. I have installed the new bug fixed Smoke 2012 Subscription Advantage Pack2 and this same clip comes in with a large colour shift. The whole image is about 10% darker! I have exported the same clip as YUV2 uncompessed QT and also a TARGA sequence and pulled these into both software versions and it is identical to the origianl. NO CLOLOUR SHIFT.
I also have 2013 beta version and I'm getting the same colour shift.
Have you done something to the colour management of RGB Uncompressed QT's in your newer software releases.
All my masters source files have been RGB uncompressed QT's for years and this is now causing big concerns.

I'm going to try this again. Using PS CC for photographers, that is Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5.x, new iMac running Mavericks.
Having processed an image in LR and PS, and saved as TIFF back to LR. All is well.
If and when I subsequently take the TIFF back into PS for further tweaks and again save as TIFF back to LR, replacing the original TIFF, I then get the Metadata Conflict warning, the exclamation mark.
As far as metadata goes, I don't want to lose what I did in LR....that is, keywords, color codes, captions, gps data, etc. I do want to retain the additional adjustments I made in PS.
I've noticed that when I choose to 'import settings from disc' that the color code disappears and I have to re-do it.
If I select the 'overwrite with LR settings' option, my concern is that I lose those PS adjustments.
My questions is: WHAT settings could have been changed in my round trip to PS that trigger the warning?

Mesh Fill.cdr
In X5 when converting a cmyk meshfill to cmyk bitmap there is often an unacceptable shift in colour.
The only workaround I have found to maintain cmyk values is to export mesh fill as pdf and then save as bitmap in Acrobat.
Does same behaviour occurs in X6? Sample file attached.

I want to import an Elements 8 catalog onto a different machine running Windows 8 and Lightroom 4. The existing work around seems to be for importing a catalog when one machine has both programs, but I don't think Elements 8 will run on Windows 8. The 'import catalog from Elements 8' option isn't showing in LR4 - presumably because it didn't see the catalog on install. The catalog is on a shared drive accessible to both machines...

I'm using LR4.1 on both devices.
I just bought a MacBook Air as my travel device. I have a Windows laptop that I use for everyday activities and processing. I just did a shoot and imported my RAW files into a brand new catalog on the MBA. I flagged picks and did some processing (both heavy processing and light processing) on the MBA. I saved Metadata to file, ejected the external hard drive from the MBA and then hooked it up to the Windows device.
Issue #1: I cannot open the new catalog created on the MBA on my Windows device. It just fails.
Issue #2: When I simply synchronize the drive to the Windows laptop, the files do come in and the processing that I did comes in too. However, the flags do not transport. And, any adjustments I did with the adjustment brush are not available for editing on the Windows laptor. (If I "reset" it does go back to the original RAW file, but before resetting, I have no access to the adjustement brush settings on the Windows device)

Mapimport command maintains integrity of x,y coordinates. Adding dem information to a civil3d TIN surface does NOT.
Detailed screen shot(s) attached.
Detailed:
I am trying to create a tin surface in autoCAD from a raster dataset in GIS. Originally, my raster dataset was in UTM's (Zone 10N), and my CAD drawings were in CA State Plane (zone 2, US feet). Both NAD83. But I have, to date, been unable to get AutoCAD to correctly convert between these two coordinate systems. I thought, hmm.. let's just convert to State Plane in GIS and then add to the surface definition in AutoCAD. I had hoped this approach would 'go easy' on autoCAD as it would not need to do any conversions. Turns out, that does not appear to work either. In fact, it is even further 'off' than before... I hope the attached PDF illustrates the situation clearly. AutoCAD's mapImport command works great. The surface boundary can be imported and appears to have the correct coordinates. The surface, with the dem added to the definition, however, does not. It is shifted down and to the left.

I wish to see only the printer profiles that I create in the Photoshop CS6 print settings - Colour Management - Printer Profiles drop down list.
I wish to delete, or at least to move to a holding folder, all the unwanted colour profiles listed in that drop down list. I have seen reference to the location in Windows 7 of colur profiles as being in the following folder
WindowsSystem32SpoolDriversColor
However, I cannot find a Spool folder on my system, so can get nowhere. how to remove unused colour profiles used by Photoshop.

I've got a need to import a couple of colours OR add a couple of colours to the permanent colour.
I am using MX Photo&Grphic Designer and WebDesigner. I use webDesigner to create and administer a business website and use MX2013 for my graphics (Business graphics that use a pallet of company colours). Everytime I open a new document (tab) in MX2013 I need to recreate my company colours and name them. This is also the same in WebDesigner.
Is there anyway to add colours to the permanent colour pallet so they are available for every document as a default? This small item would save me some time and the frustration of constantly needing to add the same colours to my pages over and over.

I am having a issue when importing raw from DMC-G2, with pictures becoming blurry/shifted after import. They seem fine for a split second before it shifts and becomes considerably more blurry.
I compared the export to the original jpeg and there is a huge difference with the original jpeg being more clear and sharp than the exported one.
At first I thought it was the camera but all the jpegs are fine. Reset and updated camera firmware. Reset preference and reinstalled Lightroom 4. Same problem.

how LR interprets/presents RAW files. I do understand that RAW files are just sensor data, and the preview that is shown by the camera is how the camera software itself is processing the RAW data into a JPG. Also, I understand that different RAW processors interpret this data slightly differently. That said, I like how my raw files look based on how my cameras (60D and Rebel xsi) show them. The exposure, color, and saturation levels are great and based on this look, they would require only a few tweaks. When I upload the RAW files to LR, initially, the files look the same or very similar as they did in my camera's preview. However, when I click on each file in library or develop, the file will initially, for about a second, show up as it originally came over, but LR will then say "loading" and the photo will get much darker and duller. Why is this? As I mentioned, I do understand that different programs interpret a camera's data differently, but it appears that LR is originally "seeing" the photos as I want them to look and then for some reason is interpreting them to be something different; why will the photo not stay as it originally looks when I first upload it? This is requiring more editing on my end. One other thing I have noted is that my RAW files already have adjustments made to them upon upload (exposure, brightness, etc.) I noted another post that addressed this and indicated that there were settings that I would need to reset to correct this. Is this also why the look of my photos is changing, or is that a different reason?

Why can't Windows Explorer show thumbnail previews of DNG's on my Windows 8.1 64bit Pc. I assume is has something to do with not having the DNG codec. However, on Adobe's website it says their DNG codec only works on Windows 7.

I installed the 4 beta and am liking it quite a bit, but I'm having trouble with gamma shifts when exporting images. When I export the image, my blacks get completely crunched -- it doesn't match Lightroom at all. It's not just the JPEG being displayed wrong -- I've looked at the exported image on a few different computers and they always appear crunched.
My monitor is calibrated (using an X-rite i1 Display 2), and I re-calibrated it yesterday to make sure that isn't the issue -- it made no difference. I made an image to demonstrate the problem:

When I export an image from LR 4.1 for editing in PS CS6, I notice a distinct loss of contrast and possibly saturation. Overall, the image looks duller and flatter. My working space in both apps is ProPhoto RGB. I use a custom profile generated by a hardware calibrator.
The screenshot below is of the same image rendered in both programs.
And here are my PS color settings:
FWIW, the image generated by Lightroom is rendered identically by Preview.

Lightroom 4.3 is still experiencing slight tonal shifts when creating TIFF copies. This happens when I export to PS6 from LR, or create a TIFF copy of a TIFF file edited in PS6.I can provide samples.
I run LR4.3 on a Windows 7 64bit OS; 8 GB of RAM; AMD 9750 Quad Core Processor; NVIDIA Quadro 600 Video card.

LR 4.1 RC2, OSX 10.6.8 - when I'm trying to use the develop module with my second monitor, the image initially looks accurate. After a second or two and before any edits have been applied, the images desaturate and look very flat. Images viewed with the second monitor in Library module look great.

I've just published my first book on Blurb. Looks great but all the pages are offset by one in Blurb when compared to my LR original. So all the pages that are on the left in Lightroom are on the right in the Blurb version. I can easily add another page and re-publish but it un-nerves me when things are inconsistent.

With LR4 and a Nikon D7000.When i import that raw in lightroom, the first view of the picture is fine then LR do its "loading" and bang, the picture changes.As RAW is not supposed to be affected by the colorspace My understanding is the embeded preview in the raw is sRGB and LR work in a different colorspace. If i change the camera for AdobeRGB, i dont have the problem and what i see from the camera to the preview then the final result is consistent.But this cause me another problem because i shoot RAW+jpeg, the backup JPEG saved in the other memory card is now AdobeRGB as well and less compatible as everybody knows, for web, print labatory, etc...
I dont have in LR any automatic developement settings.My screen is calibrated with a Spyder 3.
I'm feeling stuck in the corner as i want by backup JPEG in sRGB and n o colorshift in LR.

Is there a way to shift the capture time (in EXIT) of multiple files by a long time frame? When you select photos and go to Metadata - Edit Capture Time, you can shift the capture time in the increments of hours.. I need to shift the capture time of some photos by years.. Is this possible at all within LR?
