Lightroom images darker in Photoshop

After I edit images in Lightroom 4, I export the jpg images to a new folder.  When I open the jpg's in Photoshop or Bridge they are noticeably darker than they were when exported from LR. What am I doing wrong?

After looking into it more I think my problem may be with the color profile.  I'm using the eye-one display 2 with eye-one match 3 software on my i mac cinema display.  The general options on the eye-one software are set to ICC specification version 2.  Monitor profile size is set to "Small (Matrix)"  Should I change something there?
What can be an issue is if you build V4 profiles which depending on the software generating said profile, LR can have issues with. You could try a LUT profile but that's sometimes the cause of issues you see (again, depending on the package that writes the ICC profile). By all means try LUT or double check that the settings is Matrix.
You do want to view Photoshop and LR whereby LR is in Develop module and as said, at 1:1. Zooming out can affect the accuracy of the preview.

  • After importing an image from cs5 back into lightroom, lightroom is making the image darker

    Lightroom is making my images darker after i edit them in photoshop cs5 and I dont know why. When i open the image back into photoshop it looks fine. Even when i save it as a jpeg lightroom is making the image darker. When i imported the raw image into lightroom before i edited into photoshop it looked fine. Is there a way to fix lightroom?

    See screen shot:
    Click on the two small triangles and under <Lightroom General Presets> select <Zeroed>. Sorry, it seems that the option <None> is not available anymore in Lr 4.3. But <Zeroed> has the same effect.
    Alternatively, in the Develop Module, bottom right, just above the film strip click on <Reset>.  See screen shot:

  • Lightroom JPEG export VS Photoshop Image Processor

    Hey guys:
    Long time photoshop and lightroom user (long time user of all things Adobe). First post here in the forums. I did a search for my question but I think it was too specific, so it returned zero results.
    My question is about Lightroom's JPEG export vs Photoshops Image Processor. When I export a RAW file to JPEG from Lightroom, the file size is freaking huge. The JPEG is as big as my original RAW file (~25mb). Settings are set to default - 100 quality. Everything else remains untouched.
    However, when I use Photoshop's image processor (I launch it through Bridge, easier that way for me) and process the RAW images that way, my JPEGs are roughly 5-10mb in size. Settings in Image Processor are quality 10 and thats it. No actions being run or anything.
    Can anyone shed some light as to why Lightroom exports JPEGs that are roughly 2-4 times the size of Photoshop's JPEGs? My initial thoughts are that the 100 quality setting in Lightroom is more like Photoshop's quality 12 (that always makes me think of Spinal Tap - "Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?" "These go to eleven.") Ideally, exporting out of Lightroom would be much easier for my workflow.
    Thanks in advance.

    You are correct: LR Quality 100 = PS Quality 12
    Despite LR having 101 Quality settings (0 to 100) it actually only has 12 Quality settings the same as PS 'Baseline Standard':

  • Images edited in Photoshop not showing up correctly in Lightroom after saving

    Hi,
    I recvently got Adobe cloud and upgraded from Lightroom 3 to 4.  Since the upgrade I have been having issues with Lightroom not correctly displaying images edited in Photoshop.  Instead of the photoshop image it creates a new jpeg and displays that in the library.  the PSD does not get loaded into the library.
    I am taking a jpeg from my library and shoosing the edit in Photoshop function.  I am selecting edit a copy, but have tried it with original and with edit a copy with lightroom adjustments as well with the same results. 
    In Photoshop I am duplicating the base layer, upscaling the image, running some filters, adding dsome adjustment layers. 
    I save the image in Photoshop format back to the original folder where the initial jpeg was in the Lightroom library.  I save it with maximize compatibility on.
    When I go back to Lightroom, the catalog displays two files, the initial jpeg and an identical copy to it, NOT the new photoshop file with alterations.  If I go to the folder the images are housed in in Finder using the show in Finder command both images link to the same original jpeg.  The photoshop edited file is there in the folder but does not show up in Lightroom unless I drag and drop it.
    I have turned off all filters and made sure the sort is sorting by name.  The image does not automatically show up in Lightroom after editing.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks for any help!
    PS. I did search the topic and there are threads from 2007 and lightroom 2 but their solution was to start from scratch essentially and I have a carefully tagged, starred, and labeled catalog of 30,000+ images and really don't want to do that

    Images that are edited in Photoshop will be displayed automatically in Lr only when the image-file saved in Photoshop is the same as the one opened from Lr.
    You say you open a JPG from Lr, then edit it in PS by - among other things - adding some layers. Layers are not supported in the JPG-format so you have to either save it as a psd or as a jpg-copy.
    In either case this is not the same image file as the one opened in Lr, so it will have to be imported into Lr to show up. If you would flatten your image after editing in PS and then do a <save> to your JPG - not a <save as> - it will show up in Lr.
    PS: the only exception is when you open a Raw image from Lr in PS and you save it in PS in the file format specified in Lr for external editing. The saved file will automatically show in LR.

    1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
    Turn off auto-update here:
    Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
    2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
    They point to where the apps really are which is:
    For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
    For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
    3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
    Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
    right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
    4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
    Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
    It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
    You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
    Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
    5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
    Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
    Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

    Hi Ashley Clavette,
    The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
    When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what  exactly happens ?  Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?

  • GoPro Camera Raw Lens Profile settings not working for image sequence in Photoshop/AE/Premiere CS6

    Hey Everyone,
    I'm in need of assistance in either Photoshop CS6, After Effects CS6, or Premiere Pro CS6.  I just installed the trials after seeing Russell Brown demo the GoPro Lens Profile correction feature in Camera Raw.  Basically what I'm looking to do is make adjustments (in Adobe Camera Raw) to a series of still images (shot with the time-lapse mode on the GoPro) and then either export those stills through Photoshop or Bridge to a temporary movie file that will be imported into a timeline (with other video clips), or import the JPG files (with Camera Raw settings) directly into After Effects or Premiere as an image sequence.  The latter would be preferable as it'd avoid the extra step of having to render the intermediate/temporary movie file.
    Right now, my current workflow for GoPro time-lapses is:
              - use Bridge CS4 to do basic color correction on the still images
              - save those as TIF files
              - run the TIF files through a custom script to have Hugin 2012.0.0 (open source pano stitcher) remove the fisheye distortion
              - open the new TIF image sequence into QuickTime Player 7 (Pro)
              - export the image sequence as a QuickTime movie file
              - import the movie file into Premiere Elements 10 to place on a timeline with other video clips (as Premiere Elements can't handle the sequence(s) of thousands of still images without crashing)
    If I can go directly from Bridge to a timeline, it'd save a lot of processing time (and it'd be much nicer to preview the images in Bridge without the fisheye distortion)!
    I can prepare the GoPro JPG files through Adobe Camera Raw in Bridge CS6, though when I go to import the JPEG image sequence into Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6, none of the Camera Raw settings are applied.  If I export the Camera Raw files in Bridge CS6 as DNG files (a step I'd really prefer to avoid) and then import the DNG image sequence into After Effects CS6, the Camera Raw settings are applied except for the Lens Profile settings -- I can pick other cameras but not the GoPro lens profiles when the DNG image sequence loads in After Effects.  It also appears that once I open the DNG files in After Effects CS6, I can no longer access the GoPro Lens Profile in Adobe Bridge CS6 -- the list changes to the same list I get in After Effects.  Premiere Pro CS6 doesn't let me import the DNG files at all.  I've also tried to import the JPG files (as well as the converted DNG files) into an image sequence in Photoshop CS6, though it doesn't allow me to do so (the Image Sequence checkbox is grayed out after I apply the Camera Raw settings in Bridge).
    There could be an issue going on with different Camera Raw versions.  I didn't have Premiere Pro CS6 installed during my initial testing, though now do notice that the Camera Raw dialog in Bridge CS6 only lets me choose compatibility up to "Camera Raw 7.1 and later" when I choose to export the files as DNG.  I thought Camera Raw 8.2 was an option there a couple days ago when I only had installed Photoshop CS6 and After Effects CS6 (though am not 100% certain).
    Please let me know if there is some workaround to get the GoPro lens profile Camera Raw corrections applied in an image sequence in one of the Adobe CS6 products (without having to export the files as temporary TIF or JPG files out of Camera Raw).  I'd greatly prefer to shorten my current workflow for these files.  (I just updated the CS6 trials and have tested all three programs again though I still get the same results described above.)
    Does Lightroom 5 have any option to export Camera Raw image sequences as movie files (or any other feature that might help in simplifying my current workflow)?  I can't install the trial right now as it's not compatible with OS X 10.6.8.  I'd consider upgrading OS X if I knew Lightroom 5 would do what I need, though am waiting for any potential color profile issues to be resolved in OS X 10.9.
    I can open the image sequence in Photoshop CS6 if no Camera Raw settings are applied and then use the Lens Correction Filter to apply the GoPro Lens Profile settings, though I really prefer the Camera Raw interface in Bridge for tweaking image settings.  As soon as I apply Camera Raw settings to the first image, Photoshop CS6 grays out the image sequence checkbox.
    If there isn't a way to take Camera Raw files straight from Adobe Bridge to a timeline, I may stick with my current workflow using CS4 and see what I can do to better automate some of the steps as the TIF export in Bridge, fisheye distortion removal in Hugin, and render in QuickTime Player all take quite a while.  I won't mind waiting for all the processing if I can set it and check back on it in later the next day when it's fully complete.  Is there a way to have Adobe ExtendScript execute an external shell command (i.e.: a command I could type into the bash shell in Terminal in OS X)?  If not, is there a way to call/run an ExtendScript script from the command line and pass a parameter to it that my custom script could use?
    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    Can you zip up a few of your GoPro images, upload them to dropbox.com and post a share link, here, so others can experiment with them, or do you mean this issue is global to all camera models?

  • LIghtRoom color problem vs PhotoShop CS2 on Nikon RAW

    I recently bought Adobe Lightroom and I was surprised to notice some huge color differences compared to PhotoShop CS2.
    Im using Nikon D80 and shooting RAW. I have calibrated semi-pro monitor.
    The same RAW file opens in LightRoom pretty well until you get the rendering preview. Once the preview is done, the picture becomes desaturated in red and blue and has a green cast especially in the shadows with much lower contrast. If I use Edit in PhotoShop option, the picture becomes even worse (even more desaturated and greenish) when opens in PhotoShop. If I open the same RAW in PhotoShop directly (using the NEF plug-in, not CameraRaw!) everything is just fine. The picture looks as opened in Nikon Picture Project or as I saw it when I took the picture.
    After doing some research, I think that my problem relates to the way that Adobe Camera RAW, Bridge and LightRoom open a Nikon sRGB 4.0.0.3001 (D80) raw file. However, all the things being equal, PhotoShop CS2 (using the NEF plug-in) renders the same colors as Picture Project does (and what I saw on my camera and in reality). I also noticed that choosing sRGB in Camera Raw bring the things closer to the Picture Project colors but far from identical. Anyways, there is no way to change anything in LightRoom, outer than manually twicking all colors until I think it looks good. Which, I think Is very subjective and is different for every picture.
    Right now, my Creative Suite Color Settings is North America General Purpose 2 (synchronized for all CS applications) and no application asks me anything about changing the color profile when opening the file. I shoot (with D80) in raw, Normal camera mode (no saturation / contrast, color profile change). I opened the same file in all mentionned applications (LightRoom, CameraRaw from Bridge, PhotoShop and Picture Project) and save them as .jpeg (same size, dpi, etc.) without changing anything (no camera calibration in ACR or LR; no printer profile in PhotoShop). I sent the .jpegs to my local Costco and printed them on glossy paper. All of them printed the same way that they look on the screen. LR, ACR - desaturated on red&blue, color cast on green and low contrast, while great vivid colors and contrast from PhotoShop and Picture Project. For me it looks pretty much as Adobe applications convert Nikon sRGB into a very unappealing Adobe sRGB (and way different from what I saw in reality). I know this is very subjective; some people may argue that Nikon profile is too reddish and oversaturated. But I find the whole story rather unusual. They all work in the sRGB space and there shouldn't be any differences. I've done lot of testing with color profiles and replacing the Camera Raw plugin file format (common files) with Nicon plugins and vice-versa. But still the same result.
    I create a User Profile in LightRoom and I get pretty decent colors now, but when I want to edit the file in PhotoShop (from LightRoom) I get the same green and desaturated version.
    What do you think?

    >Regarding LR, what I'm looking here is a "factory made" solution; something that can give consistent results in the initial conversion (like Nikon plugin for PhotoShop, for e.g.)
    The problem with that conversion is that you cannot change it. In lightroom you change the actual conversion parameters, which gives you far more leeway and allows for far better conversions in the end. Currently (this will change with Lightroom 2.0 apparently) the only recourse you have if you prefer Nikon's colors is to shoot jpeg, or run your NEFs through capture and create 16-bit tiffs. This is just the way it is. A hammer gives a different result than a screwdriver.
    >It's hard for me to believe that Adobe has invested so much energy and resources in color profiling but it's unable to get nearly close to the Nikon raw colors.
    Nikon's colors are far from colorimetrically correct which you can see in many tests. Here is an example for the D300: http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/D300/D300IMATEST.HTM It is off in the deep reds, the saturated blues, and the Olive-like colors. Profiling the camera does not help you get close to Nikon's colors, but it will get you closer to the ideal colors. I doubt it has been Adobe's goal to get close to the in-camera rendering with Lightroom upto 1.4. They profile all the cameras and make some value judgments on what is more important. Skin tones vs saturated colors etc just like Nikon does.
    Regarding getting close to camera colors, there is a trick that you can do to get close to the camera jpeg that involves the ACR calibration scripts. You do need PS CS3 though.
    >I find rather strange that apparently there is no way to get professional conversion. This is defying the main purpose of Color Profiling, I think.
    Why is Nikon's conversion professional and Adobe's not? They are both just interpretations of the sensor data. Adobe's is actually colorimetrically more correct in many cases. Colorimetrically correct often means boring unfortunately. This has to do with the fact that our eyes are not color measurement devices but that we have brains interpreting the data. To get pleasing results, Color Profiling does not help as much as you'd like. My issue with the in-camera or Nikon software approach is that it locks you down creatively to the
    creative choices the Nikon folks made. Now, be aware that in the Lightroom 2.0 forum the Adobe folks have hinted at major changes to the rendering engine that will bring colors closer to the vendor rendering. How they will do this is unknown right now.

    I installed Photoshop CC (2014) yesterday through the Creative Cloud app. Now, when in Lightroom when I go to "edit in"and select Photoshop CC (2014) and click on "edit copy with Lightroom adjustments",  it opens Photoshop CC (2014) but my photo doesn't show up?  My photo does show up when I click on "edit copy" or "edit original".
    How can I correct that so that I can open up a photo from Lightroom WITH the Lightroom adjustments? Thanks!

    I'm having a similar problem, but only with jpg's. I have PS CS6, CC, and CC 2014. Other image file formats function normally with regard to the "open with" list. PS CC 2014 appears on the list. But with jpg's only PS CC appears on the "open with" list and 2014 can't be added by the browsing for it.
    The curious thing is that if I have any of the three versions of Photoshop open, click on Photoshop CC in the "open with" list, the image opens in whatever version is already open on my computer. This is true of all image formats. No matter which version I pick from the "open with" list it opens in the currently running program. I use only the latest version so keeping it open all the time is an easy work around. I won't uninstall any of the earlier versions lest more file association quirks result. it would be nice to have this matter fixed.

  • Lightroom 3.6 to photoshop CS4

    I used to use Lightroom 2, a Canon 450D and Photoshop CS4.  i had no problem using Lightroom, Photo/Edit in Photoshop to open and work with my images in photoshop.  i then upgraded to Lightroom 3.6 and now use a Canon 60D camera and still use Photoshop CS4.  When i click Photo/Edit in Photoshop now, Phoshop CS4 opens but the image doesn't appear.  What can i do to rectify this?

    OK things have change here. I expect you are working with raw files from your camera.
    With LR 2 and PSCS4 the ACR version are in sync i.e. LR uses the equivalent of ACR 5.x and PSCS4 uses ACR 5.x.
    Now LR 3.6 has the equivalent of ACR 6.6 and PSCS4 is using ACR 5.x. Since the ACR versions are not in sync you should get a warning dialog indicating that the ACR version needs to be updated in PSCS4 but this is not possible. If you are not seeing a warning dialog you need to do the following in Lightroom 3.6 go to  Edit>Preferences>General Tab> click on "Reset all warning Dialogs". You should now see a warning dialog when you select Edit in PSCS4. You should choose "edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments". This will make Lightroom create a tiff file with your adjustments and send this to CS4. ACR in PSCS4 cannot process the LR 3.6 develop settings.

  • Posterization in Lightroom 4.4 and Photoshop CS6

    I'm struggling with posterization in Lightroom 4.4 and Photoshop CS6.  I'm shooting RAW on a Nikon D800.  Unedited bright sunset photos show nasty posterization.  Screenshot is included, unedited.  Any suggestions on what to do about this?

    EmilyM wrote:
    2.twenty_one, here's a screen shot of the highlight clipping.  Pulling the exposure way way down gets rid of the posterizing in the clouds and mist, but remains on the blown out highlights.  Do you think if an image were exposed without highlight clipping, we would not see posterizing in any of the rest of the image?
    It would be difficult to take this picture without blowing out the brightest areas. The Highlights slider is what you want to use to recover the blown posterized areas. Feel free to set it to -100 if necessary. You may also need to reduce the Whites slider, which sets the Highlight clipping point. Looking at the LR default settings Histogram the Black level is very high, which may be due to lens flare. Either way using a lower in-camera exposure setting would help to retain highlight detail.

  • Keywording problem in Lightroom 2.4 and Photoshop CS4

    I'm experiencing a problem with keywording in Lightroom 2.4 and Photoshop CS4. When i export a batch of photos that were keyworded in LR to the desk top then open a photo in PS I  find only one keyword when I look through the "file info" menu item.  Any ideas on how I might resolve this problem or what I may be doing wrong.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Make sure that you have the keywords setup so that they will export. You can check by right clicking on a keyword in the Keyword List panel and choosing Edit Keyword Tag. The dialog shown below should open and should see a checkmark against Include on Export and Export Containing Keywords. It's fairly easy to get this wrong when working with hierarchical keywords.
    Also, you can configure the Keywording panel so that it shows which keywords will be assigned when image is exported.

  • Not all selected images open in photoshop

    I have lightroom 3 and cs5. When I select images from lightroom and open in photoshop sometimes not all of the selected images open. It might miss a random image or 2 or 3. All the images are clearly highlighted to open and lightroom confirms the correct amount with "selected images". Obviously driving me mad as I have to go back and try to figure out which image is missing from say 20 or 30 images.
    Any ideas greatly appreciated

    Also running OS X 10.6.4. and have 12Gb RAM. I also usually open ~50 images at a time to edit in PS CS5 and there are always a random ~5 that don't open. I tried opening a smaller number of files (~25) and still I get about 5 not showing up.
    I don't think this has to do with bottlenecks, looks more like a bug. The files that won't open, are for some reason scattered, not for example the last 5 chosen or last 5 in the grid. I rebuilt and optimised the cat. several times, and always work with just LR3 and PS CS5 running, so no other progs are hogging the system resources.
    I'm finding LR3 very frustrating and despite the new features are great, it is more buggy and unpredictable than LR2.
    Are you all using the latest 3.2 RC? There was a bug in LR3 where files with an '&' in the file/foldername (or a few other characters) would not open in Photoshop. That has been cured in 3.2RC.
