Here are a few photos from hiking with my DP2M photos today, taken under clouded-in lighting (B&W photos taken through 091 \"dark red\" filter). I got 88 shots from two batteries (and still showing \"full\" for the second battery on the camera).
Color balance in SPP was a struggle (for the non-B&W shots), since I didn\'t have a color calibration target or previous experience for adjusting \"fogged-in\" white balance; SPP\'s \"Overcast\" WB setting was definitely wrong for this situation (sickly yellow-green cast and oversaturation), so I was mostly working from manual adjustments from \"Auto\" WB.
I\'m happy to find that the camera\'s auto-focus and exposure metering seem very reliable; in fact, for exposure, I\'ve had several instances where I dialed in an exposure compensation (thinking I was smarter than the camera; based on habit from adjusting for scenes with my 5Dc), and had to cancel it out in SPP.
I\'m really enjoying using this camera.
