Get back preview image color

When I first load photos into lightroom I get a quick preview than looks like a JPEG? A second later after the image has time to load the color will change. I'm guessing that I'm seeing a JPEG preview then I'm getting what the RAW image looks like? If that is the case, is there anyway to get that preview color back without exporting as a JPEG?
Thanks

Yes - adjust the Develop settings as you please. If you like the JPEG you might try a camera matching profile if you have a compatible camera.

I am unable to get same preview image colors in Bridge and Lightroom

I am unable to get same file preview in Bridge and Lightroom. The Lightroom preview image (in both the Library and Develop) is more de-saturated. But the exported/saved jpegs match. If I try to match the Lightroom preview image to the Bridge preview image, the resulting Lightroom export colors are off. I have tried this with images with no changes and with changes and the result is the same. I have Lightroom 5.6 and CR 8.6. I am using the latest version of Bridge.
I contacted Adobe support and followed all instructions to try to fix but the problem remains. This comment was made after several solutions were tried, including updating Lightroom. :
Adobe: there would be little difference in case of preview of Bridge CC and Lightroom 5. However, after exporting it would be same. Both use different technology at the background and work in a different way. The preview which you see in lightroom is not the actual image but incase of Bridge you see the actual image ( original ). That's the reason there is a color variation between previews.
Me: But how can I then use the Lightroom preview to get accurate colors when processing a RAW file? If I do adjustments to the RAW file in Lightroom it looks different when exported. That doesn't seem to make sense when Lightroom is designed for photograhy
Adobe: Please check in develop module of lightroom.
Me: Nothing changes in the develop mode. The image looks the same as in the preview/Library mode.
This screenshot shows the unmodified images in Develop (Lightroom) and ACR (Bridge). The color differences are significant.
Lightroom exported jpeg file, unmodified from preview image in Develop (which looks like Bridge preview image not the Lightroom preview)
Bridge saved jpeg file, unmodified from preview image in ACR
Any suggestions on what I need to do to Lightroom to make it show accurate colors. If not, I don't see any point in using it to process files.
Thanks, Marie

Bridge is just a browser. It displays according to the embedded color profile but assumes sRGB for all untagged images.
In Lightroom library previews use Adobe RGB and in Develop the working space is Pro Photo RGB.
The real question is why use both Bridge and Lightroom. Stick to one, not both.

Embed ColorSync profile, how to get back to original color profile?

I am a bit shocked , experienced today that iPhoto by default embed ColorSync profile (found under general- advanced settings for iPhoto) to every photo imported.
I always believed (and trusted) iphoto did not change the original file from the memory card. I have compared today the file from the memory card and the one found under originals in iPhoto library and see now that iphoto darken the shadows area a bit, in my eyes not a good thing.
So my question is , is the process done by iPhoto reversible? Can I get back the original profile (sRGB I believe) for my photos?

iPhoto by default embed ColorSync profile (found under general- advanced settings for iPhoto) to every photo imported.
Well let's get past the shock for you. It doesn't.
If the photo has a pre-existing color profile then the file is not touched. iPhoto uses the one already embedded. It only adds a profile if 1: there is none present and 2. If you check the box.
The profile attached is virtually indistinguishable from sRGB, just adapted slightly for Apple monitors.
Search the Help for ColorSync. This explains it quite clearly.

Get Info Preview Image

Is it possible to save the Preview image from the Get Info window of a PDF as its own file?

Not that I know about.

Rotating an image and getting back the image...

Hi,
I have a small problem using images...
1. I have an existing image...
2. I need to rotate the image by a certain angle(say 60 degree)....
3. Return the rotated image back to the calling routine...
My problem is that I can rotate the image using the AffineTransform, and draw the image immediately... but I cannot return the rotated image... can anyone help me out on this??????

No sorry that didn't fix it. I forgot to mention that I already have a method in ImagePanel called clearImage()
     * Clear the image on this panel.
    public void clearImage()
        if(panelImage != null) {
            Graphics imageGraphics = panelImage.getGraphics();
            imageGraphics.setColor(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);
            imageGraphics.fillRect(0, 0, width, height);
            repaint();
    }But if I clear the panel and then try to apply the function nothing happens. The LIGHT_GRAY background remains.
This is how I apply a function in the class[b] ImageViewer
     * Apply a given function to the current image
    private void applyFunction(Function function)
         if(currentImage != null) {
              if(function.getName().equals("Zoom In")) {
                   Zoom.ZOOMIN_RATE = 1.5;
                   function.apply(currentImage);
              else if(function.getName().equals("Zoom Out")) {
                   Zoom.ZOOMIN_RATE = 0.5;
                   function.apply(currentImage);
              else {
                   imagePanel.clearImage();
                   function.apply(currentImage);    //A function is applied
              frame.repaint();
              showStatus("Applied: " + function.getName());
         else {
              showStatus("No image loaded.");
    }

Getting back the default color....

Hi there!
When you change the color of a component is there an easy way to switch it back to the UI-default color that it had when you started the application (without having to save the original color)?
Regards

I set a lot of customs defaults when I start the application
(UIManager.put("TextField.background", new ColorUIResource(...)
But when the users work with the application some components get changed their color in case the user enters wrong values or whatever.
This is done directly with setBackground... /setForeground..., my customs values in the UI defaults table remain untouched.
I just need a way to tell all components to look what their default color is depending on the value in the defaults table and set that color accordingly.
This will clear all warnings in the GUI that have been set due to wrong inputs by the user and now he deserves a second chance to enter correct things.
Something like updateComponentTreeUI?

Getting back my images

hello ! pleas need help well i restaured my iphone by accident and i lost all my pictures and i don't know how to get theme back would plaes help me ?

... and all the rest it says images not available
Normally this happens because you moved, renamed or deleted these photos (or the folders that contain them) outside of Lightroom. This is how to fix the problem: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

Getting back lost images

Hi , my friend erased his image folder, all his photos etc....
I told him that there is no way to get it back, no back up, nothing.
Is there some way to get it back?
Please help me hes driving me cracy........ Thanks

Do you mean his Pictures folder? If so his images are gone. He can try a file recovery program:
Subrosasoft Filesalvage
Prosoft Data Rescue
He must not add any files or content to the hard drive least he overwrite the sectors where the files were.

Getting back original image

Hello.
I am using Labview 2010 version to develop a program to load an image and process them using threshold. I would like to compare the original image with the threshold image. Can anybody help me to show me some guides how to find back the original image because what I got is a blank image? Below is the attachment of my coding.
Thank you.

raw files never have their data altered, that's one of the advantages of using them. Select the file in Bridge and go to Edit->Develop Settings->Clear Settings to wipe all the edits that you made to it

How can I get back my images,contacts from my lost ipod touch gen 5?

A few days ago, someone stole my ipod. I used Find My iphone but I can't found it. But I had a lot of important photos in that ipod. I really really want to get them back. Please, give my some solutions. Without using Find my iphone.

If you did not backup the contents to iCloud, there is no way to recover material from a lost/stolen iOS device. You have to have it in your possession to get material off the iPod.

Image Colors Change in Bridge Preview Window

I edited some images first in Camera Raw and then Photoshop (CS5), all working in sRGB color space, and saved them as JPEGs. If I select one of these images in the Bridge content pane, minimize the Bridge window, then maximize the Bridge window, the image appears correctly in the Bridge content pane but the colors are incorrect in the Bridge preview pane. If I resize the view in the content pane, the image colors in the preview pane get corrected within a couple seconds. Likewise, if I click on another image and then back, the image colors are correct in the preview pane, but if I again minimize then maximize the Bridge window, the image colors in the preview pane are incorrect again.
Windows Explorer displays the image colors correctly. ZoomBrowserEX (browser software provided with Canon camera) displays the same image (same file) with incorrect colors. When I upload these JPEGs to my web photohosting site (PictureTrail), the images appear there with incorrect colors. That is where this issue becomes most problematic because with the colors being off, the images are useless for posting to online forums or classifieds.
It seems that the color in the JPEG is being read differently by different software, and is even being read differently under different circumstances within Photoshop (Bridge). Is there a setting somewhere that I need to change? Or some other issue? Thanks.....

I have a fair understanding of color profiles and color management. My monitor is a Dell UltraSharp U3011 set to the factory-calibrated sRGB display mode.
What makes me certain that this is not a simple matter of different color management in different applications is that Bridge is displaying the same JPEG file/image in two panes on the screen simultaneously and the colors do not match. Furthermore, the incorrect colors in the preview pane image change to the correct colors if I resize the thumbnails in the content pane, or click on another image and then back; and the colors in the preview pane go back to incorrect if I minimize then maximize the Bridge window. Seems to me that there must be something within that JPEG that is being interpreted differently in different circumstances that results in the "two versions" displayed within the same application (Bridge) on the same screen at the same time, and that other apps are interpreting one way or the other.
Message was edited by: BoaMorph1
Exploring a bit further, I've realized that the same color display issue exists with the original JPEGs from my camera (Canon T1i, shooting in sRGB color space). So it seems the issue did not originate with settings etc. in Photoshop.... but Photoshop (Bridge) IS displaying "two versions" on same screen at same time, and so must be doing something different with the JPEG info in one pane vs. the other.

How to get a .tif image with n different colors?

Hi..i want to know how can i get a .tif image colored by some colors. I want to do something like this:
if(tifImage.pixel < 0.1) {
tifImage.pixel = yellow;
else if( 0.1 <= tifImage.pixel && tifImage.pixel <0.5){
tifImage.pixel = red;
up to n colors.
I prove the next code, but it is not getting the colors i want.
public void generateImage(BufferedImage bi,double alto,double medio,String output){
 int width = bi.getWidth(); // Dimensions of the image
 int height = bi.getHeight();
 // Some constant colors (as arrays of integers).
 int[] red = {255, 0, 0};
 int[] green = { 0,255, 0};
 //int[] blue = { 0, 0,255};
 int[] yellow = {255,255, 0};
 //int[] background = { 85, 85, 85};
 int[] background = { 255, 255, 255};
 // The original image data will be stored on this array.
 int[][][] imageData = new int[width][height][3];
 // We'll fill the array with a test pattern bars thingie.
 double[] pixelArray=null;
 for(int w=0;w<width;w++)
 for(int h=0;h<height;h++)
 if(bi.getRaster().getPixel(w,h,pixelArray)[0]>=9000){
 //lo dejo blanco
 imageData[w][h] = background;
 else if(bi.getRaster().getPixel(w,h,pixelArray)[0]>=alto){
 //lo dejo rojo
 imageData[w][h] = red;
 else if(bi.getRaster().getPixel(w,h,pixelArray)[0]>=medio){
 //lo dejo amarillo
 imageData[w][h] = yellow;
 else{
 //lo dejo verde
 imageData[w][h] = green;
 // Now we have a color image in a three-dimensional array, where the
 // third dimension corresponds to the RGB components.
 // Convert the color image to a single array. First we allocate the
 // array.
 // Note that this array will have the pixel values composed on it, i.e.
 // each R,G and B components will yield a single int value.
 byte[] imageDataSingleArray = new byte[width*height*3];
 int count = 0;
 // It is important to have the height/width order here !
 for(int h=0;h<height;h++)
 for(int w=0;w<width;w++)
 // Rearrange the data in a single array. Note we revert RGB, I still don't
 // know why.
 imageDataSingleArray[count+0] = (byte)imageData[w][h][2];
 imageDataSingleArray[count+1] = (byte)imageData[w][h][1];
 imageDataSingleArray[count+2] = (byte)imageData[w][h][0];
 count += 3;
 // Create a Data Buffer from the values on the single image array.
 DataBufferByte dbuffer = new DataBufferByte(imageDataSingleArray,width*height*3);
 // Create an pixel interleaved data sample model.
 SampleModel sampleModel =
 RasterFactory.
 createPixelInterleavedSampleModel(DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE,
 width,height,3);
 // Create a compatible ColorModel.
 ColorModel colorModel = PlanarImage.createColorModel(sampleModel);
 // Create a WritableRaster.
 WritableRaster raster = RasterFactory.createWritableRaster(sampleModel,dbuffer,new Point(0,0));
 // Create a TiledImage using the SampleModel.
 TiledImage tiledImage = new TiledImage(0,0,width,height,0,0,sampleModel,colorModel);
 // Set the data of the tiled image to be the raster.
 tiledImage.setData(raster);
 // Save the image on a file.
 JAI.create("filestore",tiledImage,output,"TIFF");
Thanks

I tried that. When I open one image and set the exposure, then go to open the second image, nothing happens. I then saved one image as a psd file, then it would let me open the raw file a second time. When I had both open on the same screen and dragged the layer from one into another image, the layer size ended up being different than the other file. It was shifted down and to the left. I need these images to be pixel locked, and the user experience I went through did not allow me to do this.
I also do not see a way to copy/paste layers between files.

Preview Images Slow to Load

Hi! I finally got all 70,000 images into aperture and all was well until I decided to move some images from one project to another. Now I get some preview images and lots of grey boxes. If I select an image represented by a grey box, it will load, so the images are okay. It's just ugly that the previews won't load.
Any ideas?

Guys, you are expecting too much. What you are describing is largely related to your hard drive setup. If you want to handle large batches of images faster you need to address hard drive read/write with things like fast hard drives, RAID 0 and FW 800.
I took delivery on a RAID 0 FW800 drive <http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/ME8R7640GB16/> today and after I have used it a while I will report back.

HD TV or LCD monitor with HDMI,DVI supported to preview and color grading

Finally I got my canon HFS100 and Intensity Pro now what type of the monitor should I get to preview and color grading video via intensity pro between HD TV or LCD monitor with HDMI,DVI supported and how to calibrate monitor via intensity pro.
Please help.

The main downside is that an HDTV is designed to be used at TV viewing distance. So it would work fine for presentations, where the audience is sitting more than 5 feet away. But at typical computer screen distance of 2-3 feet, it is the same 1920x1080 pixels spread out over a 32-inch screen. Oh, actually, that HDTV you mentioned is only "720p", which is only 1280x720. That may not look all that good at TV distance either, if you are displaying images that are static (non-motion).
Your eyes will have to work harder to see the same screen real estate, because everything is bigger on the screen. Images and text will not look as sharp (more pixelated) because each pixel is larger. It won't be like using a 30-inch Cinema Display, which has 2560x1600 pixels. Each pixel on that 32-inch 720p HDTV is more than 4 times larger.
A 1080p HDTV would be somewhat better, because that is 1920x1080 resolution.

Extracting JPEG preview image from DNG file

My company is using the DNG SDK to support raw or DNG files for users of our digital asset management software. We extract a jpeg preview/thumbnail from ALL file types we support.
My question is: how can we extract a jpeg preview from a DNG file, using the latest version of the DNG SDK?
Currently, our software uses the SDK to read a DNG file and write a tiff file, and passes the tiff to imagemagick to get a resized jpeg we can use for a preview or thumbnail.
When we extract the tiff from the customer's file, we get a base version of the image that does not show subsequent colour adjustments made in (eg) CS3; the customer would like to get a preview that shows (especially) the colour adjustments that have been made.
I know the jpeg preview exists inside the DNG, I used exiftools to extract it,and it does show the colour adjustments made.
How do I get that preview image out of the DNG file using the DNG SDK? Does the DNG SDK support that operation?
The SDK has a lot of API, but not much documentation or samples to show usage.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Maybe it isn't the smartest way, but this should work: ... call info.Parse (host, stream) etc here - the usual stuff { // find biggest jpeg image for preview unsigned int subMaxW=0; int subMaxI=-1; for(unsigned int i=0;i<info.fIFDCount;i++) { dng_ifd* pIFD=info.fIFD[i].Get(); if (ccJPEG==pIFD->fCompression && 1==pIFD->fNewSubFileType) { if (pIFD->fImageWidth>subMaxW) { subMaxW=pIFD->fImageWidth; subMaxI=i; } } } if (subMaxI>=0) // load desired jpeg preview { unsigned int i=subMaxI; dng_ifd* pIFD=info.fIFD[i].Get(); if (ccJPEG==pIFD->fCompression && 1==pIFD->fNewSubFileType) { // seek to pIFD->fTileOffset[0] and load jpeg } } }
