Are you shooting RAW, RAW + JPG, or just JPG? This could have something to do with how shite the colours look when you view them on the computer screen.Hey all
Right so i have what may be a stupid question but it has been troubling me for a few days.
Ok, so i have the 7D (amazing camera) when i take a picture and view it on the 7D's screen it looks mint, perfect colours and just perfect. Then I upload it to my computer (which is not old and has what i think is an up to date res screen 17") but when i view the images large the colour seem to be washed out (compared to the 3" screen).
The point to this is, if i then change the detials of the image through PP to make it look like that on the camera (which it does). How will i know how it will print out? Will it print how i see it on the computer screen after PP? or will it print out over saturated and all the colours wrong?
Thoughts will be much appreciated.
As for printing, it really depends on two things: How accurate the colours on your monitor are, and the quality of the printer you're printing the shots on. I had a few photos printed at Dick Smith Electronics, which cost like $3.50 per A4 print, and they looked mediocre. I then went and spent $27.50 per print at Foto Riesel (which was highly overpriced by the way) and they came out looking dope. If you've got a good printer and your monitor is correctly calibrated (or close to) they'll come out looking exactly as you see on the computer screen. If not, well, it'll be the opposite.
