Are you shooting DNG or PEF? DNG has camera-generated thumbnails in it; if Lightroom sensibly grabs those, they'll look like the full-size pictures. If the colours change, the software is presumably applying a different colour temperature for some automagic reason. > Also, many of the files from the K-7 (normal outside shots on a sunny > day) open with the "as shot" WB selection showing grotesquely high > magenta values (40 and more) in the WB section and totally > oversaturated squeaky blue skies (requiring corrections by as much as > -50 for blue saturation). Is "as shot" the equivalent of "camera WB"? It sounds very much like the software doesn't know the K-7 from Wellington boots. What do you get if you switch WB to "daylight"? -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
