Do you have the magenta one that you can post also ... and a regular one. +1 @ RAW data review also.
Looking at the channels, the blue channel looks reasonable, while it kinda looks like the red channel somehow \"donated\" (or is mia) its share to the green channel. I\'m assuming she is wearing some shade of red lipstick. It is showing black in the red channel, but light gray in the green channel which would be too light for a red in the green channel.
Curious to see how this compares with the purple version. It makes me think that the camera somehow assigned the information collected in the individual channels and somehow combined the R&G into just the G. I suspect the purple version will have a similar channel over/under response. I realize I\'m outa my league on this one, but that\'s how it strikes me.
The thing that comes to mind from a lighting perspective is if your ambient was absent of red due to being very cyanic (skylight, north light, stained glass) with sufficient illumination (see green channel @ overexposure??) that your flash contributed very little to the color. @ 1/80, f4, ISO 800 @ 2PM, that could be sufficient illumination that you\'re flash was very low, or a misfire of some sort wasn\'t noticed. As to the purple, it would require some other kind of ambient influence (inverse) coupled with a low power/misfire scenario and sufficient ambient exposure.
Obviously, I\"m grappling and grasping a bit here, but it\'s all I\'ve got atm ... maybe it\'ll spark a clue elsewhere.
Here\'s a save effort via channels.
