I’m new to working with RAW files. When I save a RAW file as a .bmp from Photoshop, the resulting image is a little different, a little cooler when viewed in ACDSee than it looks in PS. What am I missing? It seems to be the same whether I use the Adobe RGB or the sRGB settings on the camera, a Canon 20D.

Thanks very much for any help.

You need to load the Canon RAW profile.

Thanks for your answer. I’ve checked the Photoshop help and my Canon documents and have found references to color profiles, but nothing that will help me to do as you suggested. Can you direct me to a resource or get me started?

Thanks very much.

What you are missing is the colour management of images. ACDSee, IIRC, doesn’t, Photoshop does.
