Recent developments in computing means automatic functioning of computers and devices, right?
I couldn’t believe my eyes when the Nikon Editor (part of Nikon View software bundled with Nikon digital cameras) showed my captured images in a strange hue of green. On conversion to TIFF though, the colours looked just fine. It seemed to affect only NEF files (RAW image format).
My pc is a Dell Optiplex 740 and is fairly recent. As part of the monitor installation, the correct ICC profile got installed. Yet, not all colours got displayed accurately.
As part of my poking around, I have found that associating the monitor with the colour profile of sRGB (available in windows folder under system32/spool/drivers/color) resolves the matter. I know that my camera captures in sRGB, but not much way to find out what colour profile is associated with the monitor’s driver.
My search is now toward monitor colour calibration and with cameras and printers.
