Default Colour comparison for Canon 40d

Hi all, just a simple heads up. I use my photos mainly for web-purposes, sometimes the occasional print out but nothing commercial so I shoot in Jpeg large fine. Problem is that on the Windows Viewer and the Thumnail files, the picture looks file, but the moment i open my Photoshop, the Red hues are down by about -20, hence the photo always looks very green, not very flattering on the human's skin.

If i am going to upload it to my website, I should follow the colour scheme on my windows viewer right? Anyone experiencing the same problem, please help. Thank you.

I suggest you take a look at this post: http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/re...ssage=19310201

That fixed the same problem I faced long ago.

After fiddling with the settings - I still can't seem to work it out right.

When I double click on the picture file and open with windows view / view any photo on a website, the colour profile will differ from that of my Adobe Photoshop CS2.

I am currently shooting sRGB, not adobe RGB. The photos will always appear less RED on CS2 in comparison,

please advice brosS

Try to remove all the color profiles under Color Management for your display. See if it makes a difference. I just tested that and it works.

Use Picasa2. The colour profile for that photo viewer is somewhat more pleasant to view
