I've been using BBPro for a while now but have recently changed my workflow and have got an issue with RAW conversion of D70 NEFS....

If I use Convert Raw Image (Ctrl K), I get results I'm happy with.
If I use Proofs and use the same settings, I get results I'm unhappy with (this example shows a blue cast).

Am I doing something stupid? Can anyone offer any guidance?
Thanks.

Settings used:

Normal conversion
everything as shot
Auto levels (0.25, 0.25)
Sat 103
resize to 950 wide
USM (.5,1.5,1)
Output profile colormatchRGB
jpeg95


Using the menu for single file conversion:

Sorry, another, more drastic example (not as good a pic!)

ISP Change, OK now.

Are you using the latest version, BBPro v1.1.3? The white balance used in proofs should be the same as the "As Shot" white balance used in the raw conversion dialog.

I am now, thanks.
It makes a much better job of it.
