Kerri Haley Offline Image Upload: Off Nikon Color problem Hello, I am new to the forum and have a question. I have been experiencing, more and more often a problem with reflective black fabrics taking on a red-ish color in photos. I do a great deal of wedding photography, so I am talking about suit lapels looking red-ish and even noisy at 400iso, when the rest of the image has very acurrate color. This has been consistent with other D70's that I have used also. But, I don't recall this happening to me as often as it has been lately and I have not made any adjustments that might explain the change. It has happend periodically throughout the time I have used the camera (over 5 years now, wow, I need a new camera!) Lately it's a huge problem and is happening every wedding. I end up spending hours and hours fixing the issue in PS. I wonder if anyone knows of this happening and if it's something i am doing, or a fault of the camera................ I can't seem to prevent it no matter how many settings I change or use custom color or different ISO......... I've tried many things! Please HELP! Thanks, Kerri Jul 19, 2007 at 09:50 PM

dj dunzie Offline Image Upload: Off Nikon Color problem Posting up an example and exif data might help, but I can't say I"ve experienced it - and I do have a fair amount of experience with the D70s... Jul 20, 2007 at 02:05 AM

IR issue get a filter or different camera really? cheap black suits? haha that's great. well in fact it isn't but it's funny that this shows up in your pictures I've done a great deal of weddings too and never noticed this. guess they all had good suits ey? anyhoo. when i have a major color problem in my picture, i make it a nice black and white. or i just skip it and use another where the color problem (if any) is less prominent.

Kerri Haley Offline Image Upload: Off Nikon Color problem Hello all, Thanks for responding! To answer the questions......... I shoot jpg. I am required to, that's what the company wants. I have tried various WB settings including using custom set with expodisc or grey card. jmcfadden, I did send you two examples. I hope I got the email right. Thanks for taking a look. Sorry, I'm not set up to post images at this time. And I really have to exclude cheap suits. It's a little too consistent and it may not happen in absolutely every image during the day, but almost! I have tried.......... different color settings different ISO I even bailed on shooting manual, thinking the camera could surely do a better job than I apparently was, but nooooooooooooo. The only way exposure affects it, is underexposing it, obviously makes it more black and overexposing definately makes it more red. I tried flash and no flash, didn't matter. And it is the same no matter the lens I am using. Also, I have three D70 cameras and it happens in every one of them. I am at a loss! Thank you all for your input, I hope this further information is helpful. Kerri Jul 20, 2007 at 06:42 AM

jmcfadden Offline Image Upload: On Nikon Color problem i think it is IR pollution, another of the compramises we live wit in this world. Love the D70 color but it can come at a price. Check into getting a hot mirror filter , you will need one for all your lenses that you normally are using. Get one for your bread and butter lens and try it out J Jul 20, 2007 at 02:05 PM

Kerri Haley Offline Image Upload: Off Nikon Color problem Thanks sooooooooooooo much, I will be checking into that! I have been longing to upgrade to D200 for quite a while now.... Do you think this situation would improve? Is your opinion that it is the D70 having this issue? Jul 20, 2007 at 06:49 PM
