p.1 #1 · Canon DPP color profile and tool pallete thumbnail view.


Anyone using DPP know why the thumbnail view in the tool palette (ctrl+t) has a different colour balance to the actual image?

I am using version 3.2.0.4.

No biggy, just has me a bit perplexed.

I'm not seeing a difference (using 3.2.0.6) on my MacPro. It may be the CMS color settings in the DPP preferences/color management. I have "display" set to monitor profile (instead of RGB) and "workspace" set to Wide Gamut RGB.

Thanks Jerry. I have CMS settings of Adobe colour working space and a calibrated (i think) monitor profile for the monitor. Mucked around with those to try and see if it was using a different profile but doesn't look like it.

Select the images you are looking at and hit Ctrl + Shift +T, which is "add thumbnail to image and save". That way your thumbnails will show the same information as the larger images.

Lance's solution mat be the best but it should not be necessary. In general DPP updates the thumbnail view to reflect your settings changes (e.g. exposure or WB) but sometimes it just gets the colours way wrong on some thumbnails and there is no other solution that I have found. It's been like that in DPP (Windows versions) for years.

What I'm talking about is no different than in Adobe Bridge's High Quality Preview setting, so this is not a unique problem. The advantage of doing it this way is the previews load faster, then when you have edited them down, you can save the high quality preview only the keepers.

After I do this, the thumbnail and the larger image always match up, I never had a discrepancy between the two.

Thanks Lance, that did it.

I assumed it should have been updating the thumbnails automatically as Alan said, that is what threw me. I was looking in the wrong place.
