Dxo 410/29/2023 ![]() ![]() PhotoLab as well as, Lightroom, Capture One and most other software do not apply the actual in-camera settings but instead apply startup presets which are controllable by the user and often are intended to correct optical issues like distortion and vignetting before the serious editing begins. ![]() It is similar in some respects to using a JPEG as a starting point for your editing rather than an unedited Raw file. ![]() Some people prefer starting off with an image that looks exactly like the JPEG, but effectively software like DPP and Nikon’s NX Studio have already done much of the post-processing for you by applying the in-camera settings, and therefore take some control away from you. Proprietary software like Canon’s DPP and Nikon’s NX Studio actually apply all the in-camera settings by default to their own proprietary raw files so what you are seeing is identical to their JPEGs rather than an unedited raw file. ![]() Almost all raw processing programs like PhotoLab display raw images without any of the in-camera settings applied and as a result tend to look a little flatter and less sharp and less contrasty then JPEGs straight out of the camera which have all those in camera adjustments included. The similarity you are seeing in Canon"s Digital Photo Professional 4 between your raw and jpeg images is a common misunderstanding of how DPP works. However I do want to comment on your observations after using Canon’s Digital Photo Professional. As to whether Photolab’s rendition of your Canon CR3 files needs to be addressed is a separate issue that I am not competent to discuss. ![]()
