Worth trying SPP's Green Fringe Correction: Hue 0.9, Amount 1.0 as a starting point.

?

As I say occasionally I'm remaining with 5.5.3 by choice, Tom.

Oh what? I didn't know that that feature was missing from 5.x.x, sorry Ted − I wonder if it's feature locked to particular cameras too, such is SIGMA's want (rhetorical).

The problem with SPP for FS is that the Colour Mode presets are simply not designed for it.

Correct. I agree with your sentiment: If Sigma had pushed the "easy IR" aspect a lot harder and provided good support in SPP, they would have sold a good few more ILC cameras, I reckon.

I concur, and it's interesting (perhaps should that read 'annoying') that SIGMA UK has featured several articles on FS and yet SPP doesn't really support it.

RawDigger presents a great starting point but it's interesting that, with Merrill, the White Point/Balance is so off; albeit easily corrected with Levels (and the rest).

No Levels in SPP 5.5.3 either.

No Levels anywhere, has to be done in an external editor, as it would with a Merrill RawDigger export.

Not bashing 6 - I'm sure that the above will be of interest to others here.

Thanks for the comparison, interesting to see the difference between sun and shade Custom WB.
