I have never been a fan of Canon digital color. Whatever they are doing to
their sensor's data, I don't know.... I have an Epson R-D1 and I found I
like the color rendition much better than the Canon when my friend shoot
the same scene as I do. Still nothing beats Astia for good skin tones and
Provia for reasonable yet punchy. Velviaeeta scares me.
