Color Matching when Editing in Photoshop

FirstName LastName

File (any such file) is a C1 edited Canon R5 CR3 file in a C1 catalog

I select the picture in C1/EDIT WITH ->PS 2022, TIFF/Adobe RGB.

The file open in PS, but the colors are completely off. I also noticed that the thumbnail for the TIFF is immediately refreshed in C1 and its color are also off - this before it event loads PS - which does seem to suggest the issue is not PS but some conversion in C1. I tried the other parameters when doing "EDIT WITH" - but the results are the same - colors are totally off.

Any idea?

    What do you mean by "colours are completely off" ?

    The best way to proceed is to work within the same colour space all along the process.

    1) Select, as recipe in the C1 output tab tool, one with a colour space as large as possible : Prophoto RGB or ProStar are large. Develop your picture in this coulour space.

    2) Export (edit with...) the picture with this colour space, and choose as working space for Photoshop the same colour space (Prophoto RGB or ProStar): Photoshop main menu -> Edit -> Colour settings -> working space.

    Under these conditions (same working colour spaces for C1 and PS), you should get the same colours.

    Caution : If you "open with..." rather than "edit with...", PS will open the picture with its own engine and colour space.

    These are the exports parameters to EDIT WITH (not OPEN) in PS. See the difference in the color even in C1 thumbnail.

    Yes, very strong difference, indeed. Did you check your colour space is the same (very large) all the way round, from the beginning (opening in Capture One) to the end (opening in PS) ? It looks very much like a colour space/profile issue. Do you display the two images on the same, calibrated, monitor ?

    Yes, I checked all of that. It all was working fine until yesterday. Now every time I open any file in PS (not only a RAW file), i have that.

    Looks like a PS related issue....

    PS still works fine with Lightroom but not CO, so for me it's a Capture One issue

    Yes, I understand. Lightroom and Photoshop are made for each other, I mean when you go from Lr to PS, there is a perfect colour matching as there is only one possibility for the colour space/profile. With the Capture One multiple recipes and working colour spaces, it's an other story.

    When you say it worked fine until yesterday, I am thinking about a misfit colour issue which happened when changing a process rather than a sudden breakdown of Capture One. At this stage, unfortunately, I can't help you any longer.
