The vast difference in out of the box SL2 and SL2S colors

They look almost identical to me in colour. Both very nice. I have the SL2-S and cannot fault its output really, the sensor has a lot of latitude. The SL2/SL2-S are a great value proposition. MPB has some options under €2k at the moment for the S and just over €2k for the SL2. For this build quality and design it’s a steal. They have a number of the APO SL lenses for circa €3k too, so for around the €5k mark, you have a starting setup that for pure image quality stands up against and dare I say it, possibly surpasses🙃 any other in the full frame mirrorless market, that’s if not having the best continuous autofocus tracking is a dealbreaker of course.

If possible, please take the portrait from the SL2 vs SL2s with the same condition to see the difference of color, render of two pictures, eps. on the skintone.

 

In a rougher test we can see the images are virtually identical. I'm sure many thousands of photographers shoot excellent portraits with both an SL2 and SL2-S. It's therefore likely that everything else involved (the lens, the light, the photographer's eye) has MUCH MORE impact on final image than the camera body.

Considering I BARELY understood the last couple responses - I'd second your thought.   HOWEVER - let me clarify what I mean by tonal because I'm likely using the term wrong.

50mm shot in whatever settings the body is on (matched between those I'm trying) not going into anything beyond the triangle and perhaps set W/B to the same card.  Then when I view on an LG Ultrafine (fairly decent, albeit aged) - and without blowing it up - I can see variance in the darker tones.  I will - in the coming days - do this between the SL and S1 on a vintage on something and post (In hotel tonight or work).  Then you guys can tell me what it is I'm seeing and why, as after watching the YouTubeVERSE I 'kinda' felt I had a handle on it, but now - NOPE...
