I am currently loading a tif file into matlab by using the code below.

fname = '1.tif'; img = imread(fname); imshow(img)

But it showed a black picture. If I change to this.

fname = '1.tif'; [img,map] = imread(fname,k); imshow(img,map)

It works. And I found that map is actually empty.

If I did like this, it also works.

fname = '1.tif'; img = imread(fname); map = []; imshow(img,map)

I am wondering why.

The tif file information is here.

I think that it happends because your tif image is a grayscale image are it's said in properties. Maps are used for colour images.

Since it's a grayscale image the notation [] means that the display range is [min max] then you see the whole gray scale.

Check this to see how maps work on a RGB tif image.

 [X,map] = imread('corn.tif');
imshow(X,map)

Thank you very much. I think I got the idea. It just happens that map is empty. And I should use [] to have a big contrast to show this image. Another question is I have a stack of images this. If Each picture I showed is in [min max]. It look very strange. What should I do?
