Raw Photos Become Red Jpegs in LR3

Hello: I am having trouble when I use Lightroom 3 and I try to export my raw photos as jpegs. I require the Jpegs so I may send them on the web to either friends, or, to a company like istock. When I view the jpegs, they are often too red in color (this is seen in landscapes but is especially noticed in peoples skin tone...which often makes them look sunburnt or unrealistic) and they do not match my raw photos (often these are processed in CS5 and I view all photos on my Hp LP2475w monitor). Note that both LR and CS5 have been updated to the most current versions. I also calibrate my monitor with a Spyder 3. Naturally, I have tried to individually correct this color shift for each photo, but it can be a most laborious chore and it never looks quite right. Do you have any suggestions on how to correct this?   Many Thanks...

Same problem here. I do not understand what one means by exporting with ICC... jpeg are always exported using sRGB...it is the default LR. On a different note I CANNOT export with resolution less than 80 even when the slider is at 30... (the 87 in Picasa properties.)
see 4 images at https://picasaweb.google.com/101433723404021878177/Test_LR_Reds?authuser=0&authkey=Gv1sRgC OqwntDz7IW2SA&feat=directlink
The first and third and fourth are different attempts in LR 3.6 all transferred to jpeg as sRGB... the second one, with a better exif, is from Capture One. This is the color as taken -- the LR is simply too red. It looks like LR is NOT
a) getting the jpeg compression as required and
b) not rendering the local ICC (ProPhotoRGB) into sRGB... as found when loading the jpeg into PS5...
That seems to be either a user error... but I cannot figureout how to fix it.... or a possible bug...

  • All my raw photos turn red.

    Yesterday, all my raw photos turn red, first in aperture and then also in the preview.
    The first photo was converted whith Nikon software (View NX2) the second whith preview, I get the same problem whith Aperture and iPhoto.
    This photo is from 2011 and it was fine until yesterday.

    The 4.08 Raw Camera bundle update that was released a few days ago is causing problems for Nikon users. Until Apple issues an update to fix this roll back to 4.07

  • Trouble Downloading Raw photo files and JPEG photo files in CS5

    PS CS5 will not download raw photo files and JPEG photo files. The software will not recognize these files coming from a Canon G12 camera. How can I remedy this situation?

    It should recognize the jpg files, but witht the G12, you need to update your camera raw. I believe there is a version what will work with CS5 and the G12.

  • RAW photos importing as JPEGS to Lightroom

    I am shooting RAW with a Nikon D300s and importing into LR2 via iphoto on a mac.  My photos are importing as NEF into iphoto but come into LR as JPEGS.  If I copy the photos out of iphoto as NEF into a file and try to import them to LR, I get an error message that they are unsupported.  Help?!?!?

    That is iPhoto's fault. You are not actually importing the raws but the jpeg previews that iPhoto generates as a place holder. iPhoto hides the raw files from you and therefore Lightroom. If you insist on using iPhoto as the image importer, right (or control if you haven't set up the secondary mouse button) click on one of the images in iPhoto and select "Show Original File". Drag those files onto Lightroom to import them from the hidden location it will now disclose to you. If you want to keep the files in iPhoto, you probably should use "Add" or "Copy" instead of "Move".
    In the end, you will be better off just completely ignoring iPhoto.

  • Best settings to convert RAW into high quality JPEG

    I am a little bit lost when reading discussions regarding the best way to have photos accepted by Istockphoto. They are extremely demanding about the quality of the pictures and they accept zero artifacts for example.
    I read that any corrections made of a RAW picture in Lightroom 4 must be very minimal (almost no correction for saturation, vibrace, exposure,  and sharpening, noise etc.).
    In this case it would mean that Lightroom is of no use and whay not use directly Photoshop CS6 to convert the RAW photo into a high quality JPEG.
    If this is true, can someone tell me what are the best settings in CS6 to convert a RAW photo into a JPEG format ?

    A raw picture is just that.  You have to edit it in Adobe Camera Raw to get the picuture to shine.  So their statement that edits must be minimal is confusing.  Do they just want a jpeg as shot?  You can set most cameras to take raw + jpeg. 
    Also, high quality means a certain minimium of height and width in pixels.  What do they want?

    How can I keep my RAW photo files from converting to JPEG???

    Hello briggiebunny
    If iTunes can read the movie files, then you will need to create an iPad version by going to the drop down menu File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version and then syncing that newly created file.

  • I have an iPhoto library with only Jpeg's in it. I just installed Aperture 3.5 and imported several RAW photos. Shouldn't I now have an Aperture library?

    I have an iPhoto library with only Jpeg's in it. I just installed Aperture 3.5 and imported several RAW photos in Aperture. Shouldn't I now have an Aperture library?

    Should I create an Aperture library and import all of my photos from iPhoto to the new Aperture library? Then delete my iPhoto library entirely?  Just trying to get my library structure correct from the get-go as I plan to shoot only in RAW.
    That is not an easy question. There are still a few glitches with the unified library approach. For example, the new iWork applications will not yet show the Aperture library in the Media Browser, only the current iPhoto library. If you are using iWork with your photolibrary, keep it an iPhoto library.
    And it is unclear, what will happen, when Aperture or iPhoto will be upgraded to newer versions. Right now you need the latest iPhoto version to be able to upgrade older iPhoto libraries, if you want to open them in Aperture. So probably you will need to upgrade iPhoto as well, if you keep your library an iPhoto library, when both Aperture and iPhoto will be upgraded to Aperture 4 and iPhoto 12.0 or similar. In the long run it will be safer to convert the library to an Aperture library, if you do not want to keep updating iPhoto, but that can wait.
    If you want to convert the iPhoto library to an Aperture library, back up your iPhoto library.
    Then create a new Aperture library (with File > Switch to Library > Other/New ) and then import your iPhoto library into Aperture using the command "File > Import > Library" and select your iPhoto library.
    You will need plenty of space on the drive with the new library. Merging a library into another one will  temporarily a lot of working space and may take a long time - several hours for a large library, without visible progress.

  • How do i convert a RAW photo to JPEG in elements 12??? Thanks for any help!

    How can i convert a RAW photo to JPEG using Elements 12??

    In general, you open and edit the RAW photo in Adobe Camera RAW, and then either
    click on Done and then in the Organizer, FIle->Export->As New File and select JPG
    click on Open and then in the Editor do a File->Save As and select JPG
    You would NOT want to convert an un-edited RAW to a JPG in general, as you would lose all the benefits of RAW (superior image quality) and while retaining all of the disadvantages of RAW (larger file size, extra steps needed, specialized software needed)

  • How do I edit RAW photos and save as jpeg?

    HI! I have some RAW photos that I want to edit and save as jpeg. Will the edits compromise the file and how do I then save these edited files as jpegs and will that compromise the files? THANKS!

    What do you mean by “Will my files be compromised“?
    When you edit a photo with iPhoto you’re Original file is preserved exactly as it is, there are no changes made to it whatever.
    will I be able to make a readable disc?
    Why not? But what do you mean by “readable” Readable by who?

  • Should I use Camera Raw 5.0 for JPEG photo editing?

    Hello,
    I have Camera Raw 5.0 through Bridge CS4 and I shoot photos on my Nikon D40X in JPEG.  Should I NOT be using Camera Raw to edit my non-RAW photos?  Is it degrading my images?  I noticed when I did some editing and saved the photo, the new photo size was about 25% of the original JPEG size. 
    Thanks in advance!!

    To tell you the truth, you might be better off just shooting RAW in the first place... but I'm surprised by your decrease in size... I can only echo the suggestion to check the JPEG quality box and the file format used.  You didn't crop it to some different resolution, did you?
    PS: I'm getting into photo editing pen tablets.  You might try one some time for editing.

  • Canon 60D RAW Photo Granulation in LR3 normal? Or is this a BUG?

    Hello, in most Photos from Canon 60D RAW is the Photo Granulation very high in LR3.
    Is this normal or is this a bug?
    This photo grain occurs immediately after the load on the RAW file without any aftertreatment.
    It looks as if the LR3 sharpens automatically.

    The noise granularity is normal when working with RAW files because this is how the data comes off the sensor.
    It can help to change your LR defaults to use a sharpen mask that is quite high.  I use 75.  The higher the sharpen mask the more distinct the edge needs to be before the capture-sharpening is applied.  Hold down the Alt-key while you adjust the Mask slider to see what is being sharpened and make it high enough that the general areas are not sharpened, only the edges.
    For lower ISOs, this noise isn't necessarily a big problem for ink-jet printing that already consists of little dots, and actually helps the export sharpening have something to bite on if you are resizing significantly smaller, but it can be a problem is you are cropping down instead of resizing and displaying images close to full-resolution.  In this case you'll want to adjust the Luminance slider up a bit more than normal. Don't go overboard with it, though.
    Having worked with RAW files for many years, I actually prefer my images to be a little grainy and don't like in-camera JPGs where things are smoothed out too much.

    Strange colour spots (red&green) appear after RAW files converted to JPEG, anyone know how to fix it? Thanks.

    I use "Export" function to convert the picture from RAW format to JPEG format, resolution 240 pixels per inch. Strange red dots appeared in the area supposed to be dark grey, as per the picture below. The red colour does not appeared in the original RAW picture when viewing from Lightroom, only exist in the JPEG it created. Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks!

    What do you mean by "send it to CS6" ?  Do you click on the Open button in ACR to open it in Photoshop?
    What platform, Mac or Win? What exact version of Photoshop CS6, of ACR and of the OS?
