Title: Tiff, JPEG, EXR -- Color is different than VFB! Help
Post by: d-render on 2023-07-17, 22:34:25

Hi everyone,

For the longest time I have come across this problem when I save my final files from the VFB.

I do not know if it is a color space thing, but my files always come out with a different tone (more to the greenish side) and with less contrast.

Is this normal? I have put up with this discrepancy in colors from the VFB ----> Final Output for years, but I'm curious to know if anyone knows a solution for the VFB image colors to be the same as the final output?

For example, a brick material; the brick looks nice and red in the VFB but when exported to any format for final output the brick is then cast slightly greenish.

Any help would be tremendous because this is seriously a very annoying thing to happen. I am happy with my VFB colors, but the final output does not match.

Thank you!

Maybe, just maybe... it happens because Corona VFB does not use monitor colour profile when showing results?

This is most obvious when you are using a wide gamut monitor. What you see on Corona VFB is more saturated then the final result seen on app which knows windows colour management (Photosohop for example).
