Opening Files in Lightroom...

[Splattered]

I'm new to Lightroom and this Forum, so forgive me if this is a repeat of something someone else asked before, or if my issue is something that Lightroom is supposed to be doing as part of it's normal mode.

Issue - When I open a file (jpg or RAW) that was created using my Nikon D7' camera, the file opens with a "vivid" color saturation, but after a few seconds the screen refreshes to a "blah" color saturation. Is this normal, or is there some setting I need to tweek to leave the "vivid" color version.

Not sure what is up, but could use ome help figuring out if it's something on the Lightroom side or on the Nikon file format side.

Thanks.

Welcome to Lightroom Forums Splattered!

Do you mean Why did Lightroom 'ruin' my photo?
That is the classic one!
