Jon Pop Posted April 20, 2016 Share #1 Posted April 20, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I shot some pics the other day with my MP240 in good daylight; a friend's jacket, which is dark charcoal/black, came out very purple....a la the old M8 days. All other colours in the pictures seem pretty accurate. WB was set to auto, ISO 200. Has anyone encountered this? Any post production tips or tips to avoid in the future?

Advertisement Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 Hi Jon Pop, Take a look here MP240 IR issue?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jaapv Posted April 20, 2016 Share #2 Posted April 20, 2016 Search the forum. Due to the thin filter needed for optimum image quality there can be some IR leakage albeit far less than the M8. Use a filter in critical shots. In PP selecting the jacket and correcting to black will do the trick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to throw in a curve...but I shot product photography for catalogs........ some fabrics don't always photograph as you would expect......for lots of reasons. I'm not sure your friends jacket color is an IR issue "In PP selecting the jacket and correcting to black will do the trick" Japp +1 to this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted April 22, 2016 Share #4 Posted April 22, 2016 The M240 has indeed IR issues but much less so than the M8. Better solution is to use an IR-cut filter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
