Another fireworks shot from July 4th. Continuing with my rant. The image in Photoshop was exactly the same colors as seen in the raw converter, which is pretty damned close to the jpeg exported for the web. Now I know it would be easier if I used lightroom but I'm a stubborn b*d. These

Re: PESO -- Fireworks NY 2008 I

There's no mystery to it other than that you need to understand colorspaces better. ProPhoto RGB describes a much larger color gamut than Adobe RGB or sRGB. If you have subtle colors in ProPhoto RGB and they disappear when you convert to sRGB or Adobe RGB, they've been clipped as they

I assumed that there was a problem with the color space, so I tried using the Adobe RGB color space that I had good results from couple of years ago. The *ist-Ds will only allow sRGB or Adobe RGB for recording purposes, and I have the *ist-Ds set for Adobe RGB, (now I'm not sure that makes

I don't understand your workflow well enough. It doesn't help that you are using antediluvian versions of software to do your work. A lot has happened in image processing over the past five years since Photoshop 7 was current. RSE is also more than two and a half years out of date. When

Color space settings in the camera are irrelevant when shooting RAW. But what does matter is that your RAW converter and PhotoShop version are on the same page. You'd be better of converting in Elements and using that software for post. Paul -- Original message
