Title: Red color accuracy
Post by: errolhiggins on October 18, 2009, 06:29:43 pm

Noticed dramatic color shifts in the reds. Maroon reproduced as tomato red. Red Stripe on a car as yellow, but that could have been a paint characteristic. I use Capture One Pro and there are chances to correct in Color Editor.

Post a sample, so we can tell if your monitor is the problem, or if the image colors are actually wrong.

My monitor is profiled, all other colors in the shot are neutral.

That means nothing. If you don't post a sample image, there's no way we can help you.
