Editing a picture in Photoshop 2021 from within LR 10.0 makes the color profile disappear and the image loses all it's vibrancy... Any idea how to fix that? Top image is what I see in LR. Bottom is how it shows up in Photoshop...

    @Rikk I hadn't yet tried Johan's workaround.  That does seem to work.

    If you aren't following Johan's suggestions,

    A screenshot of your Preferences>External Editor settings would be helpful here.

    I am having the exact same problem.  I cannot use Lightroom and Photoshop together like this for CR3 (Canon R5) files!  Help, Adobe!

    Lightroom Classic 10.0

    Camera Raw 13.0

    PhotoShop 2021 22.0.0

    Camera Raw Plugin 13.0.0.610

    "Seems Lightroom doesn't create a TIF file for Photoshop to use, but instead Photoshop loads the CR3 file."

    Actually, that is how it always works. Lightroom instructs Photoshop to open the raw file (via Camera Raw), with the Lightroom edits. Because of the latter, the ACR dialog is suppressed. Lightroom will only render a TIF file itself when there is a version mismatch between Lightroom and ACR.

    Here's a workaround: Open the file as a smart object. Then you can invoke ACR by double clicking the smart object. Switch to another profile and back.

    Same issue here on latest Photoshop 22, Lightroom 10 and Camera Raw 13.
    Camera: Canon R5

    Seems Lightroom doesn't create a TIF file for Photoshop to use, but instead Photoshop loads the CR3 file.


    Restored the previous version of Photoshop 21.2.4 which correctly creates a tif file.

    Hopefully this gets sorted soon.

    Update:
    Color is only lost when using color fidelity profile, when I use Adobe Color or another custom profile there is no loss in color in photoshop
