Monitor Profile

Post by BlindPilot »

Hi,

I am using Helicon Focus on a stack of linear gamma images (gamma =1) and all works fine. I now would like to do some retouching but, as espected, the image looks too dark on the screen.

- To be more specific my images have been generated in Rawtherapee with the "RT_large_g10.icc"(gamma =1) output profile.

- The images are correctly displayed in Photoshop


What monitor profile can I use in Helicon Focus so that the images can be correctly seen? I have tried "RT_large_g10.icc" but they look even darker

Thanks!
Manuel

Normally colors are displayed correctly if no color profile is set in the settings.

If not, please set the sRGB profile of your monitor manually (https://www.heliconsoft.com/focus/help/english/HeliconFocus.html#HF_GEN). Or you can send us a sample with this profile, so that we can check it.

Catherine,

As I said, my image is using a profile with a Gamma = 1 and the sRGB profile has a Gamma = 2.2 This is precisely the problem!

I have sent you a sample image.

Thanks!,
Manuel
