Images blurry on import to C1

Michael Stokes
Today I imported a range of images to C1 after a few months break, as I have been using Lightroom exclusively for the past six months. All of the images appear slightly blurry or out of focus. When I look at the same images in LR there are perfectly in focus and sharp. They were taken in various locations with a range of cameras including a Nikon D800E, A Leica Monochrom and a Fuji 100s. I am using version 7.2 of C1. I would appreciate any thoughts on what might be causing this. Thanks.

    Hi Michael

    Not sure what type of Mac you're using, but if you are seeing *slightly* out of focus previews and using a retina display device, maybe check that you are rendering your previews for your monitor type.

    For example on a laptop: Retina previews-> 2048 Regular monitor previews->1024

    You can set your preview pixel size in Preferences->Image->Preview Image Size (px):

    Good luck

    Hi Chuck,

    Thanks for the quick reply. It is set at the default of 2560. However, changing it to a lower figure has had no impact. It has always been set at 2560 and when I look at older images they are still displaying correctly now . All of the recent images are OK in Lightroom. Very strange!!

    Maybe a preset during the import of the images ❓

    No presets were applied at import. I have deleted some from the catalog and re-imported them. However, the problem still exists.

    You can paste a link with the "Img" tag to the image, which obviously resides elsewhere on the interwebs.

    Paul, I do not have a website, so these images are just on my laptop.

    Drew, apologies but can you give me the idiots guide on what to do? When you say put them online are you referring to my desktop? I also cannot see an upload option for the Message Board. Thanks.
