Hi Guys,

So, I got some photos printed today at A4 size and when I got them back the colours were WAAAAYYYYY too saturated! They looked perfect on my computer as I was editing them but I am using a laptop and it isn't calibrated... is there really this much difference in my computer and images or could it possibly have been the printer the photo store used?? Here is one I got printed today... Let me know what you think =)

Forgot to put the EXIF data up! =)

Is as follows:

Olympus E300
1/80sec @ f/5.6
ISO: 100

Are you asking about the photo or the printing? If the latter, we should move this across to the printing technique area.

Sorry Wulf, About the photo...
I was just talking about the printing as thats where I noticed the colour... was just wondering if my computer monitor is that bad that I can't really see what the picture looks like on it! Does that make sense? =) Was just wondering if the picture looks fine on your guys computers... if it does then it must have just been the print store I used (and wont be going back to!) hehe!

This photo looks fine on my uncalibrated monitor. What you need though are comments from people with properly calibrated monitors.
