Orange filter colour comes through on images loaded to computer from camera.

Mar 11, 2012 1:05 PM

I uploaded some mono images from my Canon EOS5D(2) taken with an orange filter. Previous uploads have been fine. This time, after showing the mono images in the catalogue they all convert spontaneously to orange images of various shades - and the images also show colours. The camera setting was correct, on checking, for mono uploads and, in any case, never a problem before. What have I done wrongly - and is there any rescue? Lightroom is v2.7.

    This is because you shot in raw this time, and JPEGs on the previous times, I would bet.

     

    Raw files are always in full color.  The monochrome setting is only metadata so only the JPEGs get it baked in.
