    My guess is Image Stone Viewper displays the heavily processed JPEG thumbnail, which the camera created for viewing shortly after capture. Photoshop, on the other hand, (and more specifically Camera Raw) will be creating/displaying an unprocessed rendition of the raw file.

    If you want the raw file to look like the camera created thumbnail, go to the Camera Calibration menu in ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) and choose the camera profile which you are using in-camera (such as Camera Faithful).

    dear benjamin

    thx for your support .

    by saying : "go to the Camera Calibration menu in ACR " do you mean to go in photoshop to : edit-preferences - camera raw... and than to mark the thumbnail of "make default specific to camera iso setting "  ?

    soory , but i am not super technologiest ....

    When you first open a raw file, Photoshop's Camera Raw plugin should open the file for initial processing. See this screen shot:

    By default, the "Adobe Standard" profile will be chosen. However, you can choose one of the recreated camera profiles. This will apply the tonal and color changes which that particular Canon profile would have in-camera.

    I usually stick with Adobe Standard and do my own corrections to personal taste.
