Whilst I’m aware of these two factors, I haven’t yet managed to fix the issue with any consistency. It seems to be a combination of these two settings that can change the colour profile.

You might also experience a change in contrast in the image. Colours are often stronger, more saturated and may even appear warmer. This also mimics what happens when using DxO PureRAW to pre-process RAW files for editing in Lightroom.Īfter importing the processed DNG file(s) to Lightroom and you switch to the Lightroom Develop module you might notice a change in colour. If you’re interested in understanding this approach further, it’s best to read my article “ Integrating DxO PhotoLab and Lightroom”. You then import the DNG file to Lightroom to complete your processing there.

It happens when integrating PhotoLab with Lightroom, using PhotoLab to process your RAW files into DNG files. Whilst this colour shift can occur with DxO PureRAW, it’s probably most obvious to DxO PhotoLab users. Let me explain the problem in a little more detail and then I’ll share a possible cause and solution. The problem is a colour shift they see after processing a RAW file using either DxO PhotoLab or DxO PureRAW with Lightroom. I’ve recently been approached by several people, experiencing the same issue with two DxO products so I decided it’s time for an article. Why I See a Colour Shift Using DxO PhotoLab & PureRAW
