    Oversaturated colors in most of the photo viewers


    I was having yesterday a look over some photos and i found something weird. Everthing seem to be oversatured except windows photoviewer of full screen and lightroom.
    I think it seems to be a windows calibration problem, if it was a display calibration the colors would have been wrong everywhere, but i can't figure it out.

    Here are some pictures. The original picture here: http://s3.postimg.org/uqq6fm8sh/DSC_0846.jpg


    I am having this problem also on 3 different machines.

    Hi and welcome to SevenForums,
    That is a very large file to be a jpeg as an original :/
    I would imagine scaling is a destructive thing in any viewer ?
    Cheers.

    Greetz, aparently the problem was the color profile i used in lightroom, it was prophotoRGB, change it to sRGB and everything seems to be normal now.
    Thank you for the advice and happy new year.
