Hello,

I'll be traveling to Singapore in a couple days,
I would like to take the opportunity to get a Canon 17-40 f4 L while I'm there.
Could you please advice a location where I could get good service and best pricing?

Thank you,

Software & Accessories / Apple Aperture, 5DMKIII and unsaturated images

« on: May 02, 2012, 10:17:05 AM »

Hello,

Hope you'll pardon my ignorance, I'm new to Aperture (moving from iPhoto), new to RAW file format and new to my 5DMKIII...

When loading the pictures I take with my 5DMKIII to my Apple Aperture I find that all the pictures lack of saturation/colors.
Before the file is completely loaded (I see the loading phase) I can clearly see that the colors are much better although the resolution of the pictures is very low. When my pictures are updated in my iCloud/Photostream the results on my new iPad are much much better (I know, the resolution of the screen is nothing to compare to my full HD Dell monitor), I get a nice contrast, color balance and saturation.

I understand that a RAW file is not really meant to be seen but I would still like to view something in Aperture that is close from a typical "good" JPEG conversion. Is this possible? Am I missing something?

Thank you,
regards,
