Re: Follow up...

You know, now that you mention it, some of the first shots with my M5 were out a window and the sun had just broke through a grouping of clouds, reflective scene galore, and the M5 did exhibit exactly as described.

Try DR+, it should protect your highlights, instead of the camera doing it IE you're telling the camera to protect it with a different countermeasure then just dropping the comp and applying ALO, you're telling it to push the ISO and change the curve, two different approaches.

I don't mind DR+, produces excellent results on the M5, but as a purist I don't once again. I might use it more often if I could assign it a button rather then diving into menus to turn it on/off.

Side note, have an example you could post of some "bad" exposed images? Maybe bad camera? Doubt it, and I hate posting my images these days, hence I haven't. But if you'd like to share I can comment either way on the phenomena.

And yes, the M2 was the last M to keep the traditional colors. I'm not adept on color correction in post though, so it drives me bats.
