It def. is a hot color channel thing but the Nikon\'s seem to handle it better or perhaps its the glass.
Glass has nothing at all to do with this.
The \"brand mythology\" stuff is generally not too useful. You\'ll have this same issue with Nikon or Canon or Pentax or Sony or Leaf or Fuji or Olympus or you name it. It is simply the way sensors operate on digital cameras. (Actually, you can have the issue with film, though it will manifest in different ways.)
You may _think_ you are seeing less or more of it on one camera than another because the camera software may be doing some of the very same kinds of compensation that I have described or, more likely, you have not done head-to-head comparisons but are instead relying on a sort of general feeling that the grass must be greener on the other side of the fence... or should I say, the color balance should be greener on the other brand? ;-)
