[QUOTE="Keen Ai, post: 514007, member: 20820"] My workflow for the past 2 years has been this: 1) Import RAW from SD card into Lightroom 2) Apply custom import preset (designed by me), render previews... 3) Tinker with individual sliders in Lightroom until picture looks how I want it 4) Export to jpeg with embedded sRGB profile [ATTACH=CONFIG]189850._xfImport[/ATTACH] 5) View anywhere -- Infranview, Windows Photo Viewer, Web, Prints... all looks the same as it did in Lightroom (when displayed in the aRGB colorspace in develop module). If the aRGB display within Lightroom should be duller and flatter, then here are two big nagging questions: 1) Why, for the past 2 years, has it looked exactly the same to me in sRGB after export, and 2) Why would the primary develop module in Lightroom display photographs in a color space that represents the picture NOTHING like how it will be exported and viewed by 99% of consumers? I double checked the file information to make sure it's in sRGB, and it is: [ATTACH=CONFIG]189851._xfImport[/ATTACH] I don't know what to say, other than the aRGB/sRGB argument makes no sense, still.
