Not a biggie since i haven't lost anything yet, but this was a bit disturbing...
So I carry two K-3's, A and B. A is used more often, it hangs from a wrist strap. B stays in the backpack or sometimes around my neck if I am switching back and forth between wide and long for example. I occasionally chimp, primarily to check the RGB histograms to make sure I haven't inadvertently changed a setting and put myself out of range. Today on my A camera I was noticing a strange color cast on the LCD. After a few more shots I became convinced that something was wonky, switched to the B camera and went on. I just downloaded the shots from camera A via Lightroom. As long as Lightroom was displaying thumbnails based on the in-camera jpg rendering, the color balance was way off still. But once LR rendered previews, built from the RAW data, everything looks just fine. So, the jpg portion of my K-# processor has a random variable color-balance problem, but the basic DNG capture is just fine. To be clear, there is not a consistent color balance bias toward too much green in the jpg's for example. Rather, it is off in a random way for each shot. Since I only shoot DNG and don't capture jpeg's in parallel, the good news here far outweighs the bad. But still unsettling... stan -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
