NEF version export to JPG loses colour...

When I export Versions of RAW Nikon files from Aperture 2.0 to JPGs (1mb or 4mb). The JPGs look much bleeker (color loss). Does anyone know why that would be? Although I do not know what it really does, when prompted, I do allow Aperture to Upgrade the RAW file - could that have something to do with this.
Does anyone else suffer the same? What can I do to eliminate this problem?

OK Ian and Williams, I will have a look what the export presets are and let you know. You can tell I am still on a very steep learning curve. As soon as I have played around with this and have the results I will let you know. Floor

  • LR4 export to JPG the colour washes out when viewed in Preview

    Specs:
    LR4 4.2 with ACR 7.2
    Mac OSX 10.8.2
    Nikon D600 NEF (Raw) files
    This problem has occured everytime I use LR4 and I've tried exporting to different colour space - sRGB, AdobeRGB with the same result. This is using my new Nikon D600, when I export a photo processed in LR4 and shot from my old Canon 400D the colours are almost identical when viewed in Preview with just the usual loss you would expect converting to sRGB.
    Is anyone else experiencing this and/or know of a solution?
    I hope this is an issue that is being worked on for the update that will fully support the D600.
    Cheers

    Mojo,
    The problems which you are getting with Lightroom & your cameras D600 & 40D is not clear by the way you have tried to explained.
    Can you please elaborate on the problem you have with some screenshots.

  • Exports both JPG and a copy of the NEF

    I was playing with some settings and where before LR 5.6 exported only JPG files, it now exports both JPG and a copy of the NEF file. How do I just export the JPG and not both? What do I shut off?

    I was doing some tests and, being lazy, rather than import a file from a flash card, I imported from a subfolder in my work folder where I keep the RAW files from a shoot named “RAW”. Usually, the files are imported into this “RAW folder from the flash cards. Apparently, if the NEF file you are importing is already in the folder you are saving to (“RAW”), LR saves to the root directory (“work” folder) which is where I normally export my edited LR files. There needs to be a dialog box come up that says your are saving to the same folder or something to that effect. Goes to show – never try to work late at night when you are tired.
    Long story short, LR was NOT exporting JPG or TIFF files along with the NEF file. The NEF file was copied to the work folder on import. Goes to show – never try to work late at night when you are tired.

  • Exporting to JPG, but then Editing Again

    I edited my .NEFs (RAW) and then exported them to JPG for distribution.
    I noticed that they needed to be sharpened some more so I sharpened the JPGs.
    Since LR does not change the original JPG file, I can I distribute the edited JPGs? The only logical think I can think of is to export them again, to a new folder.

    I'm a bit confused by your description. I assume you have a "master" image in .NEF format (a RAW). You then export as JPG. What you've done at this point is create a new file (JPG) for use outside of LR. However, you say you sharpened the JPG. Since that exists outside LR, I'm assuming you resharpened the exported JPG using an external app like Photoshop. Or did you go back to the NEF and sharpen it some more in LR?
    In your second paragraph, you mention that LR "does not change the original JPG file" - what do you mean by that? Wasn't the NEF the original file? Or did you import the exported JPG back into LR. If so, then you're missing the LR paradigm. Your NEF is *the* original. There's no need to create a derivative JPG file and put it back into LR. If you want different versions of the NEF, use virtual copies.
    When you export, you are essentually going into your "darkroom" and creating a "print" for external use like email, web, or printer. What you have in LR should be the master image and possibly virtual copies of the master that have different edits applied. These are all used to create "prints" via export.
    To answer your question, if I understand it correctly, if you have edited a master image (your NEF) then you can export it again (as a JPG for example). You can keep editing the master and re-export it to JPG. This is like creating multiple "prints" from a negative that you keep scratching or whatever to make changes to it (using pre-digital terminology).

  • 2D Picture Control Export as JPG

    Hi guys,
    I've created a radar plot using a 2D Picture Control. However on attempts to export this by using 'Get Image' I end up with a complete white/black (depends on background colour) square box. So in short, the radar plot created out of 2 variables is not visible. 
    Any suggestions for exporting a .jpg file from a created radar plot from a 2D picture Control?
    Thanks a bunch!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Have you tried the Picture to Pixmap function followed by one the Write JPEG Image file?
    EDIT: The snippet is a modification of the shipping example. All that I had selected for the snipper were the three VIs and the wires between them. Nothing else was selected. The snippet posted is what I got. (Didn't have the Code Capture Tool installed on the virtual machine.)

  • Aperture 3: Losing quality when exporting to jpg

    I'm downloading raw (nef) images to my hard drive from a Nikon D7000 then importing into Aperture 3. I make changes mostly with Enhance within Aperture 3 and using the Color Efex Pro 4 plug-in. Looks great in Aperture and if I export using any of the tiff options. Quality remains the same. But if I export to jpg (any of the options) or open the tiff in Photoshop Elements and convert to jpg I loose quality. The photo looses sharpness. I have a tif and jpg side by side and the difference is huge. I want to upload to my website so therefore need to use jpg but I'm hating how poor the quality is.
    Any suggestions? I see other people are having similar issues.
    Thanks!

    How are you viewing the exported JPG?  What is the size of the JPG file?
    If you open it in Preview and then go to Tools->Show Inspector you'll get some info on the makeip of the file.
    Here is an example of an exporte JPG at quality 12 and original size:

  • I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all

    I take a .NEF file and a .JPG file with every click. When I transfer the files using a flash drive to another computer I never get all of the files to transfer. I get some of the .NEF and some of the .JPGs but not all. How come?

    If you're exporting a project then you'll only get the images in that project. Also if any of the masters are referenced then you won't get those masters unless you check Consolidate masters into exported library
    It might be best if you started from the beginning and explained what it is your are trying to do and how you're going about doing it. Also a description of you're hardware/software setup would be helpful.

  • Can someone please help me getting my book pages to export as jpg's?

    I have a book created (LR4) and cannot get the pages to export as jpg's. I hit the "export book to jpg" button and nothing happens. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I am using a Macbook. Any idea's or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you Dorin for your reply. I am using LR4.2...
    If you have any other thoughts of how to fix the issue, I would be most grateful.

  • BUG: Indesign CC 2014 - significant image artifacts with 'export as JPG'

    Issue
    Spreads exported from InDesign as maximum quality JPGs have heavy artifacts not present in PDF's with equivalent image compression settings.
    Steps
    Export spread to JPG (max, baseline, 300ppi)
    Export spread to PDF (image compression set to JPG, maximum)
    Compare both files in Photoshop at 100%
    Results
    Maximum quality JPGs are significantly artifacted.
    Expected Results
    Maximum quality JPGs should be identical to PDF images with equivalent image compression settings (and should be virtually indistinguishable from original files sized equivalently in Photoshop (and saved via Photoshop's 'Save for Web').
    Please Note
    I'm very familiar with the limitations of JPG's in pre-press work. Please trust that I have legitimate reasons for needing InDesign to export spreads as JPGs with the same image quality as is possible when exporting as a PDF (or using Photoshop's 'Save For Web' function with the source file sized identically as the spread in question.)
    Samples
    exhibit A: spread exported as PDF (compression set to JPG, maximum quality)
    exhibit B: spread exported as JPG (maximum quality)

    Rob,
    Thank you for running your test!
    Since posting (and just before reading your reply), I discovered an additional constraint on replicating the issue:
    –it only appears when the linked image has been upscaled* (in my example, 107.1%)
         *keep in mind, the PDF was upscaled to the same degree, ruling out it being solely an upscaling issue
    –testing at 'even-magnification' scales (i.e. 150%) simply resulted in increased pixelation compared to the same PDF export (see samples below)
    –testing at 'odd-magnification' scales (i.e. 101%) generated random artifacts (like those visible in the samples of my initial post)
    –as such, this is likely more of a resampling/aliasing issue than jpg-artifacting.
    That is, it would seem that upscaled images seem to enjoy a higher-quality resampling method when exported as PDFs.
    I'd be curious to see how your test fared with upscaled images.
    samples
    image scaled at 150%, exported as PDF (compression set to JPG, maximum quality)
    image scaled at 150%, exported as JPG (maximum quality, anti-alias**)
         **tested with & without anti-aliasing, results were identical

  • Batch change dpi from 72 to 300 and export as jpg

    Hi All,
    I have searched high and low, and have yet to find a script that will accomplish this task. I am in need of a script that will change Illustrator's default 72 dpi, to 300 dpi so I can print a series of (about 200) respectable looking images. They also need to be exported to jpg.
    Is this possible to do in batch?
    I have tried countless approaches. The closest I have come is using Graphic Converter Pro, unfortunately it cannot change the dpi from 72 to 300 (as far as I could tell). Any help is greatly appreciated. I have access to Mac OS and Windows. I've been trying to tackle this for quite some time. Thank you!

    Hi, thanks for your responses. I do have Photoshop. What I am trying to do is take about 100 .ai files and export them to .jpg. However, they are going to be printed, and any sort of batch export as .jpg I have tried so far has resulted in substantial resolution (72 dpi). I am well aware of how to change the resolution for exporting each file individually, however what I want to do is batch the whole process together. I will try the resizing approach. Thanks both of you!

  • How can I save transparency/inner glow effects when exporting to jpg?

    I'm very new to InDesign. I increased the noise levels in inner glow in 'Effects' to create a textured look to my document (I wanted a paper texture and found this method on Google) but when I exported to pdf or jpg, I realized that my transparency effects completely disappeared. I checked my export settings and the flattening tool has been set to default.
    Can someone help me understand what I should do to export that textured effect please?
    Thank you!

    Export to JPG has never been all that great and stopped trying it a long
    time ago. Export to PDF and open that in Photoshop.

  • Lost CR files after exporting to jpg

    I seem to have lost many original CR files after import > developing > export as jpg.  I had made selects to develop and then output images as lower rez jpgs.  When I went back to the original folders (on an external hd) those CR select files were missing / a gap in the photo sequence now exists and I cannot locate the originals regardless of searches.  How is this possible?

    Lightroom does not delete your photos unless you specifically tell Lightroom to do so, and this wouldn't happen in an Export operation anyway.
    So I don't know how this is possible, but I'm pretty sure it can't be blamed on Lightroom
    You need to:
    1) check the Recycle bin; or if that doesn't work
    2) restore the photos from backups, or if you don't have backups (why not?); or if that doesn't work
    3) you can try to download something called an undelete utility and install it and see if it can find these photos (and if you are going to need this step, perform it immediately, do not do anything else on your computer)

  • Exporting to jpg

    Can anyone tell me why lately I have to export to JPG twice before I get any results. It's always worked until today. Sometimes I have to export three times to get any results, very frustrating.

    InDesign 6.0.3
    Mac OS 10.5.7
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    Exporting to a PDF then JPG isn't very efficient when I need to export 67+ JPGs, quality isn't really an issue because they're for the web/email. It's always worked fine until today, I did run/install the InDesign update that popped up last week sometime.
