View Full Version : Whats happened to my camera?
Not sure if this should be in this area.
I've been out taking some snaps lately and i've noticed alot of them have this weird kinda glow to them.
take a look at the Grass in this pic to see what i mean.

I can't figure out why its doing it. the white balance was set to Auto for these aswell.
hmmmmmm, i'm confused now as it looks completely different to when i just open in on my machine.

Looks fine here - suspect you have monitor issues rather than camera issues
Don't see it:shrug::thinking::shrug::thinking:
I don't really see anything wrong with it apart from a bit of a red cast especially the path and road....I loaded it in PS and auto levels, then auto colour gave me this.
Any better :shrug:

how comes the pictures are fine now i've uploaded them but when i open then on the pc they are glowing? i'm not changing any settings on the monitor and they are the same picture.
The colours look fairly natural I can't see any halo's or luminescence :shrug:
Have you tried viewing on another monitor ?
edit must type faster
What setting are you using in CS3? RGB 8bits / channel etc?
You havent ticked lab colour or cmyk etc?
aha, think i've found something. if i open the image in CS3, Picasa 2 or even on the net it's fine.
if i double click on the image file and open it via the Windows Photo Gallery then its messes the image up? any ideas on what thats all about?

They just look over saturated to me..
If i remember right you used to be able to calabrate your monitor brightness ect when Ps installed.. see if you can do that.. might help..
Dal, just don't use the windows photo gallery.

Ive had the same issues as you with windows picture viewer (or whatever Vista calls it). I and failed to fix it, so just opened all pics in CS3 instead.

Hmmm, it sounds like your colour profiles are different in camera to CS3/net. Check your cameras colour profile and choose sRGB if its an option, or try other choices and see what happens. (This is done through the optimize image menu)
Did you smoke something weird? :)
