• Canon 1 d MkIV too dark images

  Hello

  Having a problem here. The FIRST images of my Canon 1 d Mark IV come in a too dark stop!

  When I opened, they lookfine; a second later, they change to a dark version. I use camera Standard and no other setting.

  It is not only Visual: the histogram of the opened file is shifter a stop to the left of the histogram of the phoito even on the camera.

  Any ideas? This is a major issue for me because I rely on the 1 D MkIV and Lightroom for a living...

  Thank you very much

  Altogether. Maybe even more than that, depending on the objective and the value of f in question.

• device of too dark photo booth

  Photo booth is too dark.

  Add a lot more light and try again.  If your images are still too dark in a very bright room, there is something wrong with your Mac.  Here are the things that users can do to solve a problem of camera:

  (1) If your Mac restart does not solve the problem,

  (2) use http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 from Apple.

  (BTW - troubleshooting section called an "iSight" camera.  However, after that article was published, Apple has changed the name of the built-in camera on the recent "iSight" Macs "FaceTime", then "FaceTime HD."  Whatever the name of your built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)

  Be sure to test several Apple app (photo booth, FaceTime, iMovie, QuickTime Player, etc.) in more than one user account.  Do NOT use the 'Guest' for this test account.  If you don't have more than one user account for testing, create one now.  If you need help, how is explained in http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201754.

  A 'Standard' user account is all you need for the tests.

  (3) If your camera will work correctly even with Apple applications, use OS X Recovery to completely reinstall your Mac OS since system recovery stored on your startup disk.  Don't bother test Skype or other 3rd party apps until you have your camera works with applications Apple.

  (4) If none of the suggestions above resolve your issue, contact Apple or one of the Apple-Authorized Service Provider to have your Mac professionally repaired. Don't forget to back up your Mac and Deauthorize iTunes before the call for tenders for the service.

• Satellite L550 & Win7: Jpg become too dark using Office PowerPoint

  Images JPG Photo instantly become too dark to use inserted once in Power point to a picture library.

  I use my new L550 with Windows 7 and Power Point Office Professional 2007.

  Jpg become too dark to fix using the brightness etc Format.
  The photos have good light in them before insertion and are at least 4 MB in size, JPG quality is not the issue.

  Someone at - he had problems similar and if so, has found a solution?

  Hi mate

  To be honest, I doubt that this has something to do with the Toshiba laptop.
  Powerpoint 2007 is a Microsoft product, and in my opinion, your question/problem is related specifically to MS PowerPoint software.

  In my opinion, you should check this page from Microsoft:
  http://Office.Microsoft.com/en-GB/PowerPoint/FX100648951033.aspx?CTT=96&origin=CL100626991033

  Here you can find advice and other details on the issues of PowerPoint.

• Satellite 1800-911 too dark screen brightness

  I have a Satellite 1800-911 that works correctly, except that the screen is too dark, you can barely see.
  I tried 3 screens and 3 inverters that work correctly in a 1800-354, without result. I also changed the cable from the motherboard to the screen without success.

  There seems to be no control that affect brightness: I tried the power saver routines: no difference.

  When I connect to an external monitor, the image is perfect.
  The laptop is a new installation of Windows ME linking the restore CD.

  Hello

  make combinations of already tried the "FN" keys on your keyboard to make you brighter screen? If not already so I suggest you perhaps it helps.
  If not, I guess you have a problem on the motherboard.

• Re: Satellite L550 - imported into PowerPoint Photos are too dark

  Having problems inserting JPG photos of 'Photos' Power point - they become much too dark after the transfer. Gamma-ing the JPG or upping lightness does not work. I imported the same impages using other PC and there is no problem with images in PowerPoint. The photos are A1 and taken on SLR cameras the top of the page.

  Someone had similar probs? I am using Windows 7 on my Satellite L550

  Hello

  Sometimes I have the PowerPoint user, but I've never had such a problem that pictures will get more dark after import in PowerPoint.

  In your case, I recommend you to install the latest ServicePack for your Office suite. You can get it on the Microsoft Web site. Moreover, download also all patches for the version of PowerPoint you have.

  If it doesn t work I would try reinstalling PowerPoint.

  Finally and most importantly, I think you should ask Microsoft directly on this issue. I think that it s not Toshiba associated

• Built-in Chicony webcam becomes suddenly too dark on Satellite A300-1QM

  Hi guys,.

  I bought the A300 1QM last week and so far I like much this laptop. There is something about the built-in webcam. I know it's best not to expect the best quality image from a camera 1.3MP webcam, but the image I get using the latest version of the software for the toshiba page is not only much too grainy, it gets also too dark if the general lighting in the room is rather dark. From one moment to the other. Let me explain.

  It goes like this: I am running Windows Vista Home Premium. I start the webcam software and the image is really grainy (well) but at least it's bright enough for me to see me in front of the computer. So when I lean back in my chair and wait a few seconds, the picture becomes much too dark all of a sudden and I can barely see anything more. It seems that the webcam suddenly discovers that it's pretty dark in the room and in the background and so decided to fade to black almost what so ever. I don't know how to explain it better. Why would anyone want a webcam darken the image in a few seconds when it's already dark in the room?

  I tried all the properties and settings in the latest version of the software (night mode, this thing of backlighting,...) but nothing has changed. It seems to me that it has something to do with the driver, not the software. Because when I uninstall the software and restart and keep only the drivers, the behaviour described does not change (in different applications like Skype for example).

  Have you had similar experiences with your webcam Chicony integrated 1.3MP? Have you found a way to solve it? I need new drivers, drivers may be different than those on the Toshiba site (Yes, I did a Google search, but I didn't install the drivers randomly questionable websites pilot)? Can you help me?

  Thanks in advance.
  Head of bed.

  You say that his happens with the webcam driver 'later', was what happens with the original driver as well?

  Did you remove the plastic protector located on the camera?

• LaserJet Pro M452dn color: Color LaserJet Pro M452 prints too dark

  All prints much too dark. Even in Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator. I downloaded the user guide, but not able to find a way to adjust the intensity of output. Setting the output seems to be available for Windows only. Is - everyone there knows the secret formula for Mac users? Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I usually check the option of directly on setting intensity her pinter.

  Go to system set up, select the print intensity or density and 3 is the default setting, it goes on a scale of 1 to 5, five being really dark, replace it with a 1 or 2 and try out it.

• LaserJet 1300: LaserJet prints too dark gray

  I suspect that this can happen several HP Laser Jet printers.

  Even when I print a C = 0, M = 0, Y = 0, K = 10 Gray (a setting that makes gray barely distinguishable on screen) to the black wire, black is very difficult to read in print. Gray is simply too dark.

  I've looked everywhere and complaints most people about gray printing have to with the gray print thread too light. This isn't my problem.

  I have updated drivers with no luck.

  I am hoping there is a kind of software that will allow me to recalibrate the gray my HP Print.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  There is no utility calibration for this printer. I am certified on them when they were new. Grey s printing too dark and you use the OEM toner cartridges then I would replace the engine Board. If you use replacement cartridges they print darker than the new HP cartridges and I just turn to OEM.

• Our impressions of iP4950 Canon are too dark. Brand new computer. Any tips?

  Run us Windows 7 on a Dell computer and have the printer above, but impressions are too dark.  Have changed cartridges.  No difference.

  If you have selected the correct printer profile for the paper and that you use the inks and prints are still too dark, you need color calibrate your screen. See http://windows.microsoft.com/is-IS/windows7/Calibrate-your-display.

  Your problem is that the image of your screen is too bright.

• RAW of Nikon D810 images appear darker after importation develop mode - why?

  Hello

  I have a problem with the LR. I shoot in raw, and after copying the files on my pc, I choose several pictures and import them into LR. After this step, I want to continue with the mode of development. Subsequently the following problem: the image in the develop mode has changed - it's much darker and the colors aren't the samet. Even if I change the example flat camera mode I get the same resuslt as the original raw file. I do not understand the problem - maybe you can help me?

  Thanks in advance

  Camera: Nikon D 810

  LR version 5.7

  The color space, running on the development module and the library module is completely indifferent to what looks like your image. It is not serious, and the difference is extremely subtle and really visible only on the screens of the range very high-end. In addition, color space in develop is not prophotoRGB, it is once again a linear gamma with primary prophotoRGB but space called MelissaRGB which is quite different, not important for this.

  He must know one thing more to diagnose your problem: when you return to the library, the images are dark or do they go back to the Lite version? If so, you are dealing with several possibilities. The first is as already mentioned a monitor profile. You should re - calibrate your monitor with hardware calibration. If you don't have that, test that possibility by assigning the sRGB profile to your monitor in the monitor properties pane. If this fixes it, you must get a puck of calibration to calibrate your monitor, the problem is caused by a bad monitor profile that has been installed by an update of the system. These are very common on the windows platform and even if other applications behave normally, that is the question.

  Second option is that your graphics card is not dealing with well GPU acceleration and omitting the color management. Test by going in the Lightroom preferences, selecting the tab performance and power of the graphics card acceleration off. Restart Lightroom and check. (update: I see that you are on LR 5.7: this option does not exist here so ignore this notice)

  If none of these fix the problem, and after that you spent to develop, the image is too dark in the library, that several other issues could occur. First is that you may have set a default value for the camera. Make sure the settings are zero on your images after importation. They could be zero if you apply a preset to the importation, or when you set a default development setting. Reset it by going to preferences-> presets, and then click 'reset all settings default development. " You see the change of the image when you go in develop because the library, firstly the jpeg preview the generated camera is shown and only when you are going to develop is the actual raw image get rendered by Lightroom.

  Another issue that could happen is that you use dynamic lighting on your camera modes. Nikon calls these active D-lighting. You must completely disable those. What the camera does when you have those active is to underexpose the image by a stop or two and then highlights the tag of the raw image with an indicator that shows the Nikon software to increase exposure compensation and make an HDR processing on the image to trigger shadows and bring down. Lightroom can not read these tags and just makes the image from raw data (which are underexposed!). In the library first see you the jpeg in-camera image and that the image was made by the camera using the HDR technique. You are better expose properly and leaving these modes if you want raw data of highest quality.

• Lightroom 5 prints are too dark, so a problem now!

  Hello

  Using LR 5.7

  I import images in RAW and convert to DNG.

  hen I export in a JPG and print them, the impressions are very good.

  When I print from the Lightroom print Module, impressions come out too dark with a significant loss of detail in the shadows.

  Adobe...  This is a major problem since version LR 1...  It's high time you fixed!  I wasted tens of sheets of paper because of this problem!

  My screen is just a 24 "calibrated monitor IPS ASUS.

  Windows 7, 64 bit.

  Thank you very much

  In the print module, under Print Job, print setting, brightness level of contrast and of + 30 to + 15 (these settings work with my printer). Do a test print. If necessary, change the settings. Repeat the test. Once you have arrived at the right settings for your printer, you don't need to worry about setting the parameters for each image.

• Too dark JPEG thumbnails in bridge CS5

  All of a sudden my jpeg thumbnails appear very dark and muddy in bridge CS5. These images are normal when opened in Photoshop appropriate brightness.

  Everything also confusing is when a jpeg image is then "registered under" back to the same folder to (for example) the jpeg tiff seems dark, but the TIFF of the same file version seems correct. RAW files still look correct.

  This seems to be a recent problem in the form of jpeg images, I treated a few weeks ago still stove display normally in bridge.

  I tried to purge the cache of the file without effect. Thumbnail quality is set to "high". I think I was able to accidentally change a setting, but can not think wghat he might be. Help, please.

  JPEG images are all too dark, all other file types will be displayed properly

  Thanks for the screenshot, here's what I think. You have defined a custom default for a JPEG setting.

  To check simply select the JPEG darker and with click right mouse menu, select "open in Camera Raw". This should open the JPEG in the Camera Raw. on the Basic tab, check if the exposure setting or other parameters have changed values other then set to zero.

  If so, here is your problem.

  Click the icon of the menu just to the right of the "basic" title (under the icons) and at the bottom of this menu, choose Reset camera Raw default and check if the file gets its normal exposure. Then the move that was made.

  You can test this?

• I have a new Epson R2000 and my impressions are too dark.  How can I get WYSIWYG?

  I disabled the color management on the R2000 and 10 elements to optimize for prints.  I try to get WYSIWYG.  It is complicated by a new LG Flatron IPS235 monitor.  It is supposed to have the best calibrated factory of color and FRY Electronics said that it would be the color of the true range and complete.  I tried to change the mode sRGB, photo mode and user mode and prints are still too dark.  I'd appreciate any help I can get.  I'm a scrapbooking working on pictures of my world travel bucket list.  At the rate I'm going, I will kick the bucket before I get printed photos.   Thank you!

  If there is a "16-bit" option in the Epson controls, try turning it off.

  Apparently to allow this control breaks the mangement of the color codes in the Epson driver.

  Let Photoshop control color is more accurate, but sometimes encounters bugs in code printer (such as the switch from 16-bit) driver.

  Let the printer color control is easier, but much less precise and leaves your images subject to some secret sauce of the printer driver wants to apply to them (which can vary between images!).
