Re: Pretty flower

I got curious and went through some old pictures I had taken with S90. A few flower/macro pictures I was able to find do not have colors like G9X pictures do; S90 colors look more washed out. But back then I was an "auto" shooter and never experimented with any other modes, so that might have something to do with it.

The pictures of the red flower I posted above was taken in a normal mode. Just for fun, I post-processed the same image (before crop) in-camera, in three modes; vivid, positive film, and vivid red. Positive film gives the same effect as if you applied all three vivid color modes; red, green, and blue. I personally feel the original colors look great, but I love the positive film version very much. I usually like the vivid mode for nature pictures, but surprisingly, not for this particular picture, the red looks a little washed out.
