Win10 Tip: Let the computer accurately display the iPhone7 to take photos

How does the computer correctly display the iPhone7 to take photos? The photo gamut used by the Apple iPhone7/iPhone7 Plus is the DCI-P3 standard, which is more widely used than the default sRGB color gamut for all Windows systems including Win10. So after we saw the iPhone7 photos on the Windows 10 computer, it didn't feel very good. The saturation was not enough. Generally speaking, the color is lighter, or some is dark, because the computer doesn't know how to display the colors that cannot be displayed.

But this is not a difficult thing, just install the DCI-P3 configuration file and tell the computer how to display this color gamut. It should be noted that Win10's default "Photo" application can not support DCI-P3, it is useless to install the configuration file, so if you do not install other professional viewing software, please return to the "Windows Photo Viewer" is good. s Choice. However, this software can't be found in the start menu, Cortana will not search for you, so PepsiCo Xiaobian wants to talk about how to summon it in the "open mode" when opening the iPhone7 photo.

The specific method is as follows:

1. Open the DCI-P3 configuration file downloaded at the end of the text (double-click it once, or right click and select “Install Configuration File””, the process does not There will be any window pop-up, don't worry about no response, go directly to the next step after operation, as shown below ——

2, enter control panel→color management→all configuration files, this should be able Find “Display P3”, indicating that the installation is successful, as shown below ——

3, enter regedit in the Cortana search bar, press Enter to enter the registry editor

4. Navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\WindowsPhotoViewer\\Capabilities\\FileAssociations

5, find the “.jpg” item on the right side (no new string value) , the name is .jpg), the numerical data is changed to PhotoViewer.FileAssoc.Tiff, as shown below ——

At this time in jpg format file (iPhone photo default format) Right click and you will see "Windows Photo Viewer" in “Open with "Opening" After opening the file, you will see the photo displayed correctly, as shown below ——

The following is a comparison of the effect of "Photo" and "Windows Photo Viewer":

▲ "Photo" to open DCI-P3 color gamut photo effect

▲ "Windows Photo Viewer" to open DCI-P3 color gamut photo effect

Given that not every computer will Actively install the DCI-P3 configuration file, so in order to make the iPhone7 photos look normal, you can take a compromise, which is to convert these photos into sRGB color gamut, but this will inevitably reduce the original photo saturation slightly, because of loss The color that sRGB cannot display is lost, but the color in the sRGB range is guaranteed to be normal. IT Home uses Photoshop CS6 (all versions are similar, specific to see) as an example, tell the conversion method:

1, after entering PS, open a DCI-P3 color gamut picture

2. Select Edit→Convert to Configuration File

3. Select sRGB in the configuration file of “Target Space”. IEC61966-2.1

Click &ldquo After confirming & rdquo; you will notice a slight dim in the color of the photo, but still slightly better than opening the original photo on a computer that does not support the DCI-P3 color gamut. This conversion is suitable for users who like to share photos in order to make the converted photos more normal on more machines.
