Hello,
See the thing is, I use a Canon Xsi to take photos, when I preview them on the mini screen they look fantastic, when I preview them on my laptop they look great, and when I preview them on my additional monitor, well............. something seriously goes wrong.
Picture colors change a bit they are the same color but in different tone, they get dark, skin tones differ drastically, the worse part is that the lab prints match more the monitor that gives me the unpleasant look, I don't get it, both monitors are set at sRGB like the lab suggested, and the camera embeds that same profile to the images, what gives??
Is the Canon preview and laptop color reproduction lying to me?
Is there like a way I can get the settings from my camera or laptop color to somehow have it for my editing software to apply the desired correction (soft proofing)??
