The images looked great as we shot tethered from the Canon 1Ds3 to my Mid'15 MBP, making minor adjustments and backing up to an external hard drive. As the client copied them to their MBP, they appeared about a stop or more dark and no adjustments appeared. I did not change any settings that I know of and any help would be appreciated.
A couple of things. As others have mentioned, ACR and C1 are totally different processing engines, and monitor calibration is important. But it seems that your problems started when you upgraded C1, so I'd look at changes to your and your client's environments.
- That the images consistently look underexposed on your client's machine(s) suggests that you and they are using different monitor brightness settings. Also, monitor color space could matter (but not 1 stop). Are you both using the same color spaces on your monitors and in your processing software settings? Since you both apparently calibrate your monitors, it's possible that something got changed at some point.
- Have you checked your process recipes and how C1's treating metadata, adjustment exports, etc.? I've noticed that some of my process settings need to be verified for each new session/catalog and also when I've done some C1 updates (both version and minor).
- Your client may be using a different version of ACR than before, especially if they're on a CC subscription. Maybe Adobe's changed the way 1Ds3 Raws are treated.
- Would it be acceptable to your client for you to send TIFFs instead of Raws? If so, you'd be able to send full-res adjusted images to them and ACR and other programs should be able to see them pretty close to the way you do on your setup. That's what I'd be inclined to do.
I hope some of this helps.
