I have a problem when viewing my RAW pictures taken from my Canon EOS 20D looking different when comparing them to PhotoShop CS2 and the Canon Digital Photo Professional 1.6.1.0 software that came with the camera. The colors in the Canon software are definitely better than the Photoshop view. I even downloaded the latest edition of Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) version 3.4 from the Adobe website but I can only select ACR 2.4 when viewing them in Photoshop for some reason. I know I can manually set the settings in ACR but am not having much luck getting the colors to match up with the Canon software. Too much red in the Photoshop ACR view. I want to do most of my editing in Photoshop but it is useless if the colors do no match what I print. PhotoShop help states the options to choose from under camera profile in ACR also depends on whether a camera raw has a profile embedded.

How does one get a RAW file in Photoshop CS2 to match the colors in Canon's Photo Professional 1.6.1.0 automatically and how does one get the ACR 3.4 option to appear in the camera profile setting in ACR?

A bigger question is which is right, idealy they should both show near as makes no difference the same colours, but somethings out somewhere, what colour space is PS set to SRGB RGB1998 etc? and what colour space is your camera set to? have you run adobe gamma to set the monitor up. Personally I prefer Raw Shooter to either PS or the Canon raw converter. Wayne

Thanks for your feedback. I made some progress on this topic today. I converted my RAW images in DPP to TIF and then opened the TIF in Image Ready. They look exactly the same! The strange thing is that the image in CS2 or Bridge still looks funky.
