C-1 Color Different in Photoshop?

NN87501
Can anybody tell me where I can go to get the correct color set up in C-1 and Photoshop to be the same color and contrast. I have been using C-1 for over 10 years and just really noticed lately, a friend I told to use C-1 sent me a comparison side by side of the color rendition in C-1 was different than when opening the outed tiff to photoshop and I was baffled. So I tried it myself and did notice that the image in C-1 was slightly more contrasty and saturated than the same exported image to photoshop is.???
Does anybody have a really good color set up for C-1 and Photoshop so I can get the best color accuracy posible? I usually use Adobe 1998 in both programs but upon opening the tiff in photoshop it is slightly different than viewing it in C-1.
Thanks in advance!!!

    If you have a calibrated display and use the same color space/ICC profile in both softwares, you shouldn't have any difference.
    I don't have any.

    Thanks for your reply. I do have a calibrated display and I can open both images side by side, one in C-1 and the other in Photoshop side by side and there is a slight difference. Like I mentioned, not as much with color but contrast and saturation.
    I am not sure if I can post images here but will try to if possible.
    Thanks

    PS. Have you ever tried doing this? Open C-1 with the same image and photoshop and do a side by side. You will see the contrast and saturation is slightly different.

    it has to due with the color rendering engines / intents
    always embed the camera profile c1 and have photoshop manage the icc profile conversion
    check photoshops color setting / intents . i would suggest adobe (ace) and a intent of perceptual

    Eric -
    Have you gotten any further info on this? I've noticed the same situation. C-1(11) has more red, more saturation and more contrast than the psd in PS.

    Over the years, I have greatly increased the amount of adjustments I do in C-1 instead of doing most adjustments in PS and it's kinda frustrating to get an image in C-1 looking the way I want it and then it doesn't look the same in PS.

    BTW, although I'm working on a calibrated monitor, it would seem to me that the issue would be same regardless, since both apps are being viewed on the same monitor.

    Hoping someone from C-1 would chime in here.

    Some conclusions, so far. Started a PhaseOne support case and they suggested that by viewing the C1 files at 100% in the viewer they should look the same as 100% in PhotoShop. They are correct, the images match.

    In the process, I realized that the issue I'm having has to do with the fact that if I compare the full view in C1 compared to 100% in C1, that's where the color and contrast changes. More saturation and contrast at full view, significantly less of both at 100%. Does anyone else here see that on your system?

    Upgraded to C1-v12 - no change.

    Waiting for more info and (hopefully) a solution from Support.
