Since the SD9, if I have learned something with the Foveon, it is using Neutral Mode (Always).
Neutral color mode will give you the max dynamic range out of this camera. SPP can be set on -1 or just left as it is, it really depend of the subject.
Never ever sharpen an X3F. Just take what you need in sharpness out of SPP.
Sometime, you can switch on standard color mode but in SPP, when you want more punched photos and higher micro contrasts.
Generaly, applying just a little +1 or +2 in SPP saturation and tweaking a little bit the color weel will give you the most natural look you can ever want out of the DP2m.
The f4 aperture is and always was the best aperture of all the DP2 line; period.
If sometimes you have some \"strange colors\", especially in the red channel, do this cooking method in PS : Picture>> Setting >> Color sat >> Red +5 >> Yellow -15 (you can varies this variable between 8 and 15, depending of your needs).
I test it since August, you can rely on me. Try it
