erudolph Posted July 24, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 24, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) 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??

Jager Posted July 24, 2015 Share #2 Posted July 24, 2015 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. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
erudolph Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share #3 Posted July 25, 2015 (edited) Thanks Jager. Thorsten emailed that of two 240s, one has a neutral LCD, the other's screen has a warm cast. Edited July 25, 2015 by erudolph Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattsie Posted July 25, 2015 Share #4 Posted July 25, 2015 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattsie Posted July 25, 2015 Share #5 Posted July 25, 2015 Oh, and I'm only shooting DNG as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overgaard Posted July 26, 2015 Share #6 Posted July 26, 2015 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).
