Slightly different color in PS - what am I doing wrong?
Sorry if this is already answered somewhere (couldn't find it). When I store 16-bit tiff in C1 and open it in PS CS4, I see colors slightly different (I'd say they are little bit "dull"). Tiffs I store are converted P25+ RAW files. I did try different color spaces (native P25+ one, Adobe 1998, ProPhoto), it doesn't matter. I also tried to open them "as is" and with conversion to working colorspace in PS (it's ProPhoto) - same thing.
Am I alone? Any suggestions? Thank you!

Dedok,
Just to be clear...
Veiweing Processed TIFF files (16Bit) in Capture One is different than in Photoshop? OR Your RAW files look different than what you get in Photoshop once processed?
When it comes to these slight color differences it could be a few things. The most common are a bad monitor profile or incorrect Photoshop Color Settings. The best test for this is to set everything to work off of Adobe 1998... Monitor Profile, Capture One Proof Profile, Photoshop Working ColorSpace.
This should give you consistent results from one program to the other, you can then reinstate your previous settings until you find the one setting that causes the issue.
When it comes to Photoshop however, the most common overlooked change is vieweing the "Working RGB" as appose to the embedded profile.

Thanks, Drew.
I open a RAW file, process it and then save it as a standalone tiff file. It's just an ordinary tiff with some embedded color space. I keep C1 window open and open that standalone tiff file one more time in PS. I keep both windows (C1 and PS) open on the same monitor and see the difference. I have perfectly calibrated Eizo CW240 monitor (calibrated by i1 calibrator). And my working space in PS is ProPhoto (will try to switch to Adobe 1998, but I prefer ProPhoto). And the standalone tiff can be either in ProPhoto space or any other space. I see the difference no matter what.
As per your reply, there is something called "Capture One Proof Profile". Is it hardcoded to Adobe 1998 or can I change it somehow? I can't see it in anywhere Preferences. Could you clarify this please? Thank you!
UPDATE:
OK, I tried Adobe 1998. Same thing. I made a screesnshot, please take a look and judge yourself:

The difference is clearly visible. And I have no idea which software to believe to. And, before you ask, I do need to open this in PS in order to use my printer plugin which works in PS only, period.
Thanks for any advice!0 -

Questioning your need for Photoshop would never have crossed my mind.
Check the Proof Profile in Capture One, illustrated below;

If thats not it then create a support case and we'll get it sorted out.0 -
Thanks, I tried that too. No effect. I opened a case.
Meanwhile this might be useful for other folks here to understand the difference between the Proof Profile you mentioned and profile I specify while saving 16-bit tiff. How do they interact?
Thank you for your help!0 -
I'm using Capture One 4.8.3 and PhotoShop CS2, and have the same problem--as does a friend. IWhen processing to a 16-bit TIF I always set my ICC profile to Adobe 1998 (though there are two of these listed in that menu!) and my working profile in PS is also Adobe 1998. Always the same problem.
BTW, there is no View>Proof Profile in my version, as shown in the above screen capture. What other options do I have?

This is simply because your computer has the profile in more than one location and Capture One reads the available files from both locations.
Create a support case and provide some examples, we'll go from there.0 -
dedok,
Go into Photoshop and under Edit > Color Settings choose "More Options" from the right side. Make sure that "Compensate for Scene-referred Profiles" is NOT checked. You dont want this. Also make sure the "Desaturate Monitor Colors" option is off as well.0
