ned1 0 Posted June 6, 2013 Don't comment unless you have a well calibrated monitor! I'm trying out a new workflow: scanned provia to raw file raw processed in raw therapee final tweaks in photoshop Raw therapee seems to give me better colors than PS. Curious what you think. Link to comment
brother_soulnier 0 Posted June 7, 2013 I am going to say that I have a well calibrated eye, overlooking your thoughts about my monitor, here let me give you a little old school basics, I look at my camera screen and then compare my monitor, all monitor calibration mean squat if it does not match my cameras output, with that said, this image has a red overcast, like you may have used a magenta filter in your post process. I don't like when people tell me not to do something on a public forum, who are you? Link to comment
ned1 0 Posted June 7, 2013 Im a photography school trained color printer. Spent endless hours in a color darkroom.Unless you have calibrated your monitor using proper hardware there is no way to see the colors accurately. Sorry. That's just a fact.when you have a background in printing, sites like this can be very frustrating because you have no idea what the viewer is actually seeing. Link to comment
brother_soulnier 0 Posted June 7, 2013 thank you for the clarification, I did not know you were looking for technical feedback and not what professional photographers might see with their eyes. I am just a photographer since 1975. All I have in my defense is when I do a wedding and get prints back, I can lay the prints on the wedding gown and they match, I think it best that I skipped all the techno gamma color stuff, I would have thought something was off when it really was not. Humor me and take a paint chip off that wall and put it next to your monitor. Link to comment
