Differences in colours between Photoshop and Bridge

I have a question that have puzzled me for a while. There's some differences between the colours in bridge and in photoshop. When they're previewed in Bridge it has nice warm and sligtly desaturated feel to it. When i open the RAW file in Photoshop it gets much pale and red. Why is that? The same thing happens when i shoot the picture and the first preview shows the warm and desaturated version, but when i see the picture again it's back to the pale and red version. Same thing happens, when i open it in Ligthroom. When i click on a picture, it shows the warm and desaturated version, but quickly return to the other one, after the picture is loaded.
I really like the warm and slightly desaturated version, so is there a way i can keep it, or bring it back? I know it has something to do with the colour conversion, that happens in the camera, but i can't figure out how to use it.
I'm shooting with a Canon EOS 5d mkIII. See a screenshot of the issue.
Please help me...

There is a non-obvious menu at the top right hand side of Bridge that selects whether Bridge displays the camera generated jpeg within the raw file (your preferred rendering above) or the ACR version (the warmer redder image).  I set mine to High Quality so the Bridge version always matches the ACR, even if it takes slightly longer to render.
Canon has its own algorithm for conversion and AFAIK they don't share it with Adobe.  My advice is change the Bridge setting so that the two match, and try the other camera profiles under ACR Camera Calibration to see if one is more pleasing than the stock Adobe Standard.  Alternatively, you can get into modifying/creating your own camera profiles, but that will take some more study and tools, such as using the DNG Profile Editor.

  • Can't get Camera Raw widow to open between Photoshop and Bridge.

    Okay, so I can't get the Camera Raw editing window to open between Photoshop and Bridge on my new computer. I used Migration Assist and synced up all files from my old computer, and the Camera Raw setting still works fine on my old Laptop. And even images that I edited/adjusted in Camera raw, they automatically pop up in Camera Raw on my new computer, but images that have not been openned in Camera Raw before, don't automaticlly open in Camera Raw editing window?
    How do I fix this so that all images open through Camera Raw window before in Photoshop??

    What kind of file format, raw or JPEG? If JPEG then you'll need to set your Camera Raw Preferences correctly to have JPEGs open in Camera Raw.

  • Difference in colour between 2012 and 2010 proc

    I know that newer 2012 process tries to save detail in the highlights (different tonal curve I guess), and has much better controls in Basic develop module so I was eager to edit my newest shots in LR4.
    However, I wasn't so thrilled how it rendered bright pinkish colours.
    Two examples below are cropped parts of a photograph, have default values, using Adobe Standard profile, from Canon7D raw file.
    Image done in 2012 process, default values.
    And this one is 2010:
    It doesn't seem a big deal when viewed in the web browser on the white background, but the difference is very obvious when editing those  in LR. Notice that 2012 file has a "better" histogram with "safe" highlight zone.
    However, it altered the colours as well and histogram shows that too. Pink blouse seem more washed out. I can assure you that process 2010 file is much more closer to the original scene, original colours.
    So... can I do anything about this? Can it be corrected in final LR4 version? Sure I can raise the saturation in the pink channel, but that will raise other, well saturated, areas as well and I won't get the same result like in 2010 proc. file.

    I've been testing the "2012 Process" using a Macbeth color checker image (raw). My first goal was to determine what settings in LR/2012 would best match CS5/ACR6/2010. I was not trying to preserve the 2010 process, just want to better understand the difference.
    First pass just using the defaults in both versions resulted in differences of 3 to 5 points in the RGB values of the 24 patches of the colorchecker. On some patches, one of the RGB values might be the same, but at least one was different by 3 to 5 points. The 2012 version looked lighter overall, so I suspected that the difference was due to tones (as Jeff Schewe has suggested).
    So by trial and error I kept reprocessing the LR4/2012 version, decreasing only the Blacks slider. When I got to a setting of Blacks -8, the black colorchecker patch finally matched all 3 RGB values. All the other patches were very close, with a few differences of only 1 point in RGB values, and usually in only 1 value (red or green or blue, but not all three)
    However, there was 1 exception. The Blue value in the colorchecker's Yellow patch had a 7 point difference. All the other primary patches were exact matches.
    My colorchecker test images were from a Canon 5D2, processed under the Adobe Standard profile, rendered as 16bit TIFs in Adobe98 colorspace, and stacked as Photoshop layers to read the RGB values.
    So I suspect what many are perceiving as color differences are real differences, but are caused by the basic difference in tonal rendition between the 2012 and 2010 processes. For the OP, please reprocess your pinks in LR4 with some different black settings and see if you get closer to your original 2010 version. I'd be curious to hear the results.

    Hi LarryMeikle
    The biggest difference between Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop CC is that Photoshop CC is subscription-based--you have to subscribe to Adobe's Creative Cloud service to use it.  Also, Photoshop CC includes new features that were not in Photoshop CS6.
    Let us know if that helps.
    Thanks!

  • Difference between photoshop and illustrator effects?

    Under the effects menu in cs5, what is the difference between photoshop and illustrator effects? when do you use the photoshop ones?
    Thank you.

    The Photoshop effects are copies of similar effects from Photoshop. As such, they can only be applied to raster art, such as that edited in Photoshop. When you apply a Photoshop effect the Illustrator art you apply it to is rasterized in the background and the effect is applied to the rasterized version of the art. If you expand the appearance of anything with a Photoshop effect on it it will be rasterized. The other effects retain all or part of the vector art. When you expand the effect or save a PDF at least some of the original vector art will remain as vectors, although some effects (Drop Shadow, Blur, Feather, Inner Glow, etc.) to add rasterized art to the file.
    The rasterization is non-damaging, in that the original vector, type, or other objets remain fully editable. If you remove the effect the rasterization goes away. There is no dialogue for rasterization resolution in the effect; you set that in Effect > Document Raster Effect Settings.

  • Photoshop and Bridge CS5 does not auto rotate SOME images.

    Photoshop and Bridge CS5 does not rotate SOME of my vertical images.  Most other photos taken in the same time frame and with the same camera display perfectly.
    Orientation is checked for display under Preferences, Metadata, Camera Data. 
    There also seems to be a discrepancy how Orientation is described under Metadata for those images which DO auto rotate : sometimes it is -90 (which is how I hold the camera for verticals and which displays on most verticals) and sometimes it is "normal" even when it has auto rotated the image.   I do not understand this difference.
    "Normal" is also used to describe the orientation of those images which DO NOT auto rotate for viewing.
    The photos in questions were taken using a Nikon D-300 which is programmed to indicate the orientation of the camera and has always been programmed to do so. 
    I know I can manually change the orientation but we are talking about hundreds of images (I have over 10,000 photos in all; most of which display fine).
    What should I be looking for to explain and correct this issue?
    I appreciate anything you can do to help.  Thank you.

    Thanks for responding to my query.  I'll check out the thumbnail size.
    It is just so curious that 90% of the verticals auto rotate and the rest do not.  The ones that do not rotate are even from different years (other images in those years work fine), although all taken with the same camera.

  • Slow swapping between Photoshop and Illustrator

    I have had this issue for a while now where it takes forever to swap between photoshop and illustrator, even if nothing is on my clipboard.  It also seems like it takes forever for photoshop to display its UI no matter what program I am working in prior to clicking on it on the task bar.  Once I am in the programs, they run fine until I try to save or print, at which point to slow to a crawl again.  It wasn't  always like this, but I had to do a system restore a couple of weeks ago to fix a bad boot file, and now the programs run like crap.  I have noticed that the person who worked here prior to me never uninstalled the previous versions of Design Standard.  So I am just tyring to figure out a way to speed things up because this should not be going this slow.
    My computer specs
    Windows XP Professional
    2.83ghz Quad Core Intel Processor
    4GB RAM (tech  under since XP pro only supports 3.3)
    GeForce 9800 512MB Vid card
    All my drivers have been updated and I did a registry cleaner which did not fix the problem.  So any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    Imo, you should establish a rather strict
    color management strategy (examples):
    1. Define in Photoshop:
    RGB: AdobeRGB(98)
    CMYK: ISOCoated
    Gray: Black Ink ISO Coated (Custom profile)
    Spot: Black Ink ISO Coated
    2. Distribute this profile set by Bridge
    3. Convert RGB images in Photoshop to CMYK
    4. Define Color space in Illustrator as CMYK
    5. Open the Photoshop file or the Tiff file in
    Illustrator: here it looks as expected.
    Problems: the CMYK file contains an ICC-profile
    which is different to the global CMYK-definition.
    Now it depends on the CMS strategies, and that's
    the point where I'm usually giving up.

  • Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop and Bridge does not recognize the raw files from my Canon Mark III 5D Camera.

    Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop and Bridge does not recognize the raw files from my new Canon Mark III 5D Camera.  How can I get my files open to view and edit?  I am using LR3, Photoshop CS3 and Bridge CS3.  Do I need to upgrade these programs or is there another way to get these programs to recognize my files?
    When I try opening the raw images in Lightroom, the thumbnails say "Preview unavailable for this file"  ... when I click "import" an error message pops up that says "The files are from a camera which is not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom."
    When I try opening the raw images in Photoshop, an error message pops up saying "could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file."
    When I try opening the raw images in Bridge, it just shows an icon with the file name and CR2.
    Please help!!!

    Unless I missed an announcement, today, LR6 isn't available, yet, right?  Only Adobe employees and beta testers would know what LR6 does differently at this point and they're all sworn to secrecy.
    LR5 is available as a standalone version.
    PS-CS6 is available as a serial-number-licensed version.
    PS-CC + LR5 are also available as a Photography Plan subscription for $10/month with a minimum OS versions of OSX 10.7 (and probably 10.8, soon) and Windows 7.
    Bridge is part of PS, not a separate program.
    LR5 standalone and LR+PS-CC plan are both available on this page:  http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/software.html
    PS-CS6 can be found on this page:  Creative Suite 6 which can be found by searching www.adobe.com for Photoshop CS6 and clicking the Buy link in the on-the-fly search results.
    As with any new Adobe software, it might be wise to run it in trial mode for a few days/weeks to see if it works well with your computer, before purchasing and finding out you might need a new computer, first.

    I have recently updated the new apps via creative cloud now photoshop and bridge no longer work, they open then say they have encountered a problem and close, I also tried opening the old version of photo shop but getting the same result

    What OS version? What's the exact error? Exactly when does the error occur? What previous versions? What is on the screen when the error displays? Does Photoshop get fully open?
    Try opening Photoshop holding down Shift key immediately to turn off plug-ins. Lots of good suggestions here: Photoshop: Basic Troubleshooting steps to fix most issues

  • Difference in value Between BW and R/3

    Hi,
    We are in the process of validating reports .We have observed difference in value for  credit and debit amount fields in BW and for the same data is coming from standard data source 0EN_JVA_2 (Joint venture: Actual line item using delta extraction) we have done full data load. In the data source the data coming from a single field and that is spited based on debit/credit indicator in R/3.
    I need your valuable input on where the problem is for the difference of value between BW and R/3.

  • How can I better improve the color of images between Photoshop and Premiere?

    I have trouble getting true colors between Photoshop and Premiere CS6.
    What can I do to solve this situation?

    Premiere Pro works internally with colors in an RGB (red, green, blue) color space. If you want to edit video clips you create in Photoshop in Premiere Pro, create the clips in RGB.
    If you want to broadcast the final movie it is best to ensure, in Photoshop, that the colors in your image are broadcast-safe. Assign the appropriate destination color space—for example, SDTV (Rec. 601)—to the document in Photoshop.
    You can refer to some suggestion as below:

  • Font sizes between  Photoshop and Edge - Any Accurate conversion table?

    I have been trying to make sense of the font sizes between  Photoshop and Edge. It seems that the conversion tables I have found do not actually give the right numbers and I am wondering if there is a table from Adobe that would make it easy to have the right size rather than an approximation.
    I prefer to use text in Edge rather than Photoshop for many different reasons one being dynamic text.
    For example a font in Photoshop in a 780 x 475 image is 8pt - In Edge, according to conversion tables it should be 11 px but it is totally wrong. It needs to be closer to 30 px to be about the same.
    So, Adobe Team, any documentation on that?

    By the way, I have to correct the numbers but they still do not make too much sense. The artist gave me a 300 dpi file so of course the px size what wrong. After converting the file to 72 dpi, the font size happens to be 33.33 pt or 40 px which is now way too big in Edge.  It looks like the size my just be the same 33.33 pt would be 33.33 px. Is this correct?
