Hello All,
I have an iMac, Canon EOS cameras and a simple Canon MG4150 printer. Earlier this year, in Cornwall I took this photograph (with my EOS M) in RAW:
Sun Setting Over St Ives by wakarimasen1, on Flickr
The version you see is the JPEG developed by Canons' own software, Digital Photo Professional 4. It's nothing amazing but I like it, and decided to print it today. So far, I have six copies: none of which look like the print above. I'm dimly aware of colour profiles, but the last time I dipped my toes into their murky waters, it all ended rather badly. Does anyone know of a simple primer that I can follow, to set up my system for reasonably accurate printing?
I prefer film (slides) for colour if I'm honest, but am trying to embrace the digital world a little more. However, if I can't make a simple print, I think I may go mad .
All help gratefully received.
