High filter transmittivity is good for noise characteristics, and VERY bad for colour accuracy...
...This leads to quite a few problems with metamerism, and an uneven hue transition curve in between the primaries (most commonly known as \"Canon skin tones\")...
Thank you for the very interesting discussion!
It makes me glad that I am \"color blind.\" -- \'yeah, that skin looks fine to me...\'
In addition to the 5D vs 5D2 example you give, what can be said about the various Canon dSLRs and their color quality (hopefully subjectively)? I\'ve read many people praise the D60 (or was it the D30?; both are before my time, dSLR-wise) and the 1D - do these nuggets of perception square up with rigorous quantitative measure?
