p.1 #15D2 FW106 vs 107 in ACR/LR
Anybody noticed a difference how LR/ACR converts 5D2 RAW files using FW 1.0.6 or 1.0.7?
It seems LR/ACR renders FW 1.0.7 files slightly magenta in dark or low-contrast areas. From the looks of it, LR/ACR doesn't seem to do this to FW 1.0.6 files.
I don't think LR/ACR has been updated since Canon released FW 1.0.7.
Canon has instructed 5D mkII users who have upgraded to FW 1.0.7 to update DPP, to counter a similair issue (only limited to sRAW):
"If the existing software applications are used to display sRAW1 and sRAW2 images that were captured by a camera with Firmware Version 1.0.7, dark, low-contrast areas in the images may appear slightly magenta. If the updated software applications are used to display sRAW1 and sRAW2 images, the color of the images will appear normal, regardless of the camera firmware version."
It will be interesting to see wether Adobe will update LR/ACR to handle whatever Canon changed in the 5D2 RAW files with FW 1.0.7. Right now, I will stick to FW 1.0.6. I don't use sRAW anyway and the black-dot issue doesn't concern me. I hate magenta "pollution"...
Thoughts?

This was fairly well documented when the firmware was released. People were experiencing the magenta cast from files shot in SRAW1 and that's it. I too noticed it with LR, but a simple shadows tint tweak applied to all the photos at once corrected it.

So, the magenta cast was introduced with FW 1.0.7 in LR/ACR as well?
And how about a difference in noise performance in LR between 1.0.6 and 1.0.7 files?

It unfortunately will not update LR2. Not a huge deal, I'd be surprised actually if they release an update just for this issue.

This looks promising (from the 2.3 release notes): "Canon EOS 5D Mk II sRAW files could process with artifacts in Lightroom 2.2".
Thanks
