Problem Converting RAW to JPG

    Hi all, I'm having a problem when I convert from RAW to JPG after making a few adjustment's. The photo always looks great while it is in Photo shop but when I save it and re check it in Zoom Browser or any other Program it is never the same (actually a lot worse). If I open it again in P/S it looks good again, is there some setting in P/S that needs to be checked or unchecked. It is so frustrating that I don't shoot in RAW any more
    Any help would be appreciated, Thanks :confused:

    When you are exporting jpegs for use in the real world (web or printing) from PS or LR or any other converter software you should always choose sRGB as the output colour space unless you know what you are doing and why you are doing it.

    This was a recent thread that shows the confusion that can arise when you don't.

    Basically for viewing on the web you need to save the jpeg with an sRGB colour space, as browsers can't support AdobeRGB colourspace because it can't recognise the bigger gammut of colours in the Adobe RGB and images look dull and flat, so save the files in sRGB and they should look fine on the web.

    melekalikimaka: Thanks for that tutorial, I am sorted now, the default setting was on which resulted in my conversions being very flat
