hi, i have been shooting RAW and i have been using DPP to convert them to jpeg. The problem is after i increase some saturation and color tone (to my liking) when i convert them to jpeg, the adjustments are too much so the jpeg becomes too saturated.

is this really the case?

its just frustrating. thanks

What is your color management setup? Is your monitor calibrated? Are both DPP and whatever you're using to view the JPEGs matched to the same profile?

Jup. Likely a Color management issue.
Did you set the correct monitor profile in DPP?

(Prefs > Color Management. Set your monitor profile. Not sRGB for monitor profile. It's fine for working space, not for monitor)

No. Where it says "AdobeRGB" in my screenshot (work color space), it's fine to set sRGB. Good choice actually.
Where it says "Monitor profile" (for display) you absolutely should *not* choose sRGB. Set it to your display profile. If you use a newer version DPP on Windows, there's also a choice "Use OS settings" (or so) which should be fine as well.
