Full Version: Lightroom troubles...
OpenSourcePhoto > GetIt > Brilliant Bridge and Lightroom Presets

So I was wondering if anyone else has this problem.

I shoot in RAW on Nikon D200. The colors in my camera are just how I want them, I open them in preview, and they look great. I load them into lightroom however, and all the skin tones turn pink with little contrast. But there are no presets running, I checked. Why am I having this problem? Please help! When I export them they still have that horrid pink color in all the skin tones mad.gif .

Thanks!

I was having the same problem. I just got CS3 and am loving Bridge again and the ability to edit Jpegs in ACR and have not gone back to LR. I just got too frustrated with orangey, pink, muddy images. Everything looks so much better in Bridge. Not sure why...

Try making a preset in LR with all channels set to 0. When I first started using LR, my D200 NEF's would process slightly green in LR. I used a zeroed out preset and now it works fine. My d2x and D2h files do not do this upon opening in LR.

I have two D200 but I haven't had any problems. Sorry.

Don't forget that what you see in the preview on the camera is not the raw file but a small jpg that is created with the camera settings. That is why you only look at the screen for composition and at the Histogram to see your exposure.

Check in the preference for Lightroom (not in the import screen) to make sure is not adding any presets.

is or has your monitor been calibrated recently? You may want to check your calibration.
