So .... then we are back to the pre Merrill color look. Flower photos with strangely colored and desaturated greens. That is a property for the sensor found in all the pre Merrill DP cameras and SD14 and SD15.

I could link to thousands of examples on Flickr where that simply isn't the case.

And, of course, SD9 and SD10 had other color problems. Foveon blue skies and yellow skins, anyone?

I would say that Merrill and Quattro are the only sensors with natural looking colors. At least out of the box.

In my experience all the foveon cameras I've owned are capable of getting it wrong if you don't shoot with them where they are best. Oh and I bought the SD15 to shoot infrared, colour really isn't an issue when you do this
