Hello,
This is the first time I have posted anything on a photography forum.
I have a really simple question in which I get differing answers from everyone I ask.
Hopefully someone here can give a diffinitive answer.
I travel to various countries around the world and take many shots with my Panasonic camera.
When I return home I check the images on the cameras lcd screen and also look at the shots using an sd card slot on my large screen tv.
All the pics look exactly the same on the lcd screen and the tv.
I then transfer the images from the sd card to the computer.
This is where there becomes a problem,when transferred,the images on the computer screen do not look the same as on the lcd screen or the tv they are often darker and the colours are not so vibrant.
I then upload my favourite pics onto a photo book website and design a photo book for each trip.
The photo book images are exactly the same as the images on the computer screen.
Could anyone tell me why the fantastic images on the lcd camera screen become different when transferred to the computer,should they not be exactly the same?
I have spent a hefty amount of cash on a new monitor as someone suggested,but this has made no difference.
I have also bought a monitor calibration tool again barely no difference.
Help!!
Thank you
Gary
