Pickures look sharper in DPP than CS3

I just came back from a short trip to Vegas last weekend. When I pull the pictures up in DPP they look great. When I do the same pictures in CS3 they look under exposed. Anyone else have this issue? Both are viewing RAW formats.

Check your profiles in CS3 for color display. IIRC there's a few good threads here in the Post Processing forum.

I've actually calibrated my monitor and adjusted CS3, and I hate viewing in DPP

I think the title of the thread is a little misleading - apparently you're talking about exposure not sharpness?

Yea my bad.

Thanks. I do not use DPP that much but I open it up to view a few of the photos that is when I saw the difference.

I may be wrong on this, but I believe that DPP reads the pictures style settings from the imbedded jpeg, i,e brightness, contrast, sharpness etc and applies them to the RAW image preview as where CS3 does not.

Getting a camera profile for the Camera Calibration tab of ACR also makes a difference.
