Re: What is "Foveon Blue"?

Just took this SD9 LO-res shot of my sky at about 8am local solar time:

Sunlight WB, no adjustments at all.

I do find that messing with various WB settings and the exposure comp. gives you almost any 'Foveon Blue' you want and, if you like a little purple tinge, open it in FastStone Viewer instead!

Which leads me to ask if 'Foveon Blue' has ever been defined in device-independent terms such as XYZ, Lab, Luv, etc?

And what is the correct WB for a blue sky?
