Sepia review image

Trying a brand new 246.  The LCD review image has a sepia cast.  It is sepia when the file format is set to DNG only, and also when (as it usually is) set to DNG + JPG fine.  In this case, toning is definitely off in the menu and when examined in photoshop or lightroom, the jpg is definitely monochrom.

 

Any thoughts on this?  Bad LCD??

Mine has a slight sepia cast, too (I'm shooting only DNG's).  Not anything I've ever worried about.  The actual files are perfectly neutral.

Interesting - mine has a slight warm cast.  It hadn't bothered me, as I generally print on OBA free papers which give a slight warmth to Piezography K7 inks as well as Epson K3.  Strange however that there is variability amongst different bodies.

When I look at the LCD it is actually sepia tone-ish. 

 

If the original question was if it is normal, I think the answer is yes. 

 

I prefer this to the bluish screen of the M240 (first batch).

 

In any case, the slightly sharpened and sepia looking image on the LCD is a part of the workflow. After a while you recognize what it has to look like to be good in the final edit. A bit like matte screens of SLR cameras isn't how the image looks like in the final edit (the depth of field is different perceived, and of course the colors).
