I’ve got a problem with colour management in LR and CS3 (this happened recently):

I imported some RAW files from my D80 into LR when I realised that the colours in LR were washed out. Opening with CS3 gave me the same result. but when i open the same picture to windows gallery , it looks better and the color is ok…

can you help me to solve this problem ?

can find out more at this site…

Images do not go back and forth from LR to PSE6 as your video suggests. At least not with my LR and PSE. In the video you used the big PS so does this back and forth not work on the little guy PSE???

Matt,

Thanks for another informative movie. Now I’ve got a non-Lightroom question for you.

What software are you using to capture and produce the videos?

Thanks in advance. …pt

Matt;

Thanks for the great videos, LR would be some much less usefull with out your great videos. I hope to do a photo workshop with you in AZ next year.

Ken - Yep. I was saying that my current Macbook Pro (2.3 ghz) is no where near as fast as my Dell that is over two years old.

Paul - First off, you’d be better off to remove it from your computer the first time around. You should have a backup drive that has the originals on it anyway. It should re-import fine after that.

Thanks,
Matt

Hi, I was working in Lightroom and wanted to edit 2 images in CS3 to perform auto -align script, but only one of the images went to Photoshop, tried several times with the same result, so had to go to Bridge and work from there. Is there a way to edit multiple images in Photoshop from Lightroom?
Thanks for all the great video’s and tips!

Hi Matt,

I realise that you’re very busy - wondered if you could comment on the question I posed in the first post re psd and re-importing the dng that created the psd - I’m struggling to find a workaround.

Thanks
Paul

Matt,

Thanks for the candid remarks about pc & mac.

One thing I want to understand, were you saying your Mac Pro 2.3 you have performance issues with and not as fast as the Dell of 2 years ago? or was that about another Mac before you bought the Mac Pro?

Thank you
Ken

That’s the killer tip Matt. You answered my final hesitations.

Here’s a question: As a Flickr account user, most of the time I just upload my final jpg after all my editing needs are done and I don’t notice any color issues. Lately though, I’ve started to notice that the web is killing the colors in my photos and giving me a very flat image. How do we now when to convert to web colors and when can we just upload our original?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Matt,
I get that when you edit in photoshop from lightroom and then save the file it shows up in lightroom as an edited PSD or Tiff. But, what happens if you then re-open the PSD or Tiff from outside lightroom and make another tweak,
do you then have to re-import the file back into lightroom if you want to print or make other developing changes? I find I end up making those additional changes using the tools in photoshop rather then re-import and then I print using photoshop.
cheers,
zac
