Over the past couple of days i've had an issue with how my photos are looking in any type of photo software.
It started in my camera software (ViewNX2) where the images were showing up with really high contrast, then photoshop displayed photos with a particularly warm white balance, which if saved and viewed in Windows picture viewer looked normal again but today even that has started showing my images with a high contrast.
I am completely confused as to what has happened as all images on the web show up normally and as they should do so it's not my laptop display settings that have been tampered with. Will include a comparison for you to see what I mean.
The only thing that has changed on my laptop in the last week is the vista service pack being upgraded so that I could install CS4. Not sure why that would effect any graphic displays though?
I shoot in RAW, convert to DNG so it opens in photoshop and save JPEG images. I have always done this though so it's not an issue with changing file type.
I did wonder if perhaps it was an error or setting on my camera that has caused it but jpegs that I haven't touched for atleast a year aren't displayed as their true colours in windows picture viewer. I wouldn't be surprised if it is something to do with my camera though...somehow. Even noticing that the thumbnails when viewed in windows folders show up differently to how they did before.
Here's the examples of what I mean:
