GH2 has yellow fleshtones

Mar 24, 2011

Quote from dpreview:

"Uninspiring JPEGs in some situations mean Raw conversion needed to get best results
Poor (caucasian) fleshtones - too yellow
Auto White Balance can render images too blue, especially outdoors"

Yuch. I'll stick with great Olympus skin tones. A photographer that ignores skin tones is like a concert conductor that ignores tuning of instruments. Isn't skin tone the most important aspect of photography?

Why spend thousands to take a picture and make a person look yellow?
