Actually, it's not a problem - I have no beef with bumping the settings in the camera to make the image look good. As a matter of fact, if I wanted to represent the scene "the way I saw it" it would look awful. The light was almost purple (you should see the skin-tone of my wife in the uncorrected shot I took of her). I was just curious for my own knowledge, not because I wanted to change the output of the image. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - charl...@visi.com Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
