Title: Wierd color rendering
Post by: David Eckels on June 22, 2022, 08:00:15 pm

I am getting a strange color shift when moving from the Develop to Library modules. This is a NEF converted to DNG by LR. I am pretty sure there was a LR update, but no other known fiddling. I have a couple questions:
1. Any similar observations?
2. Any known fixes?
3. Any suggestions as to how to figure out what is going on?
Any help/suggestions greatly appreciated.

First, the preview architecture in Develop is unique to all other modules and the most accurate preview of the data. You should always view previews there and elsewhere at 1:1 or greater and when comparing, use the same zoom for each. 
It is normal to see slight differences at 1:1 but if really excessive, the first thing to try is to disable GPU in preferences; better? If not, you might have a corrupted display profile. Recalibrate the display or whatever you usually do to create a display profile. When given the option to build this profile, pick Version 2 (not V4) and Matrix not LUT.
