Re: Canon R6 bad/washed out colors?

Hi all,

I have purchased a R6 last year and have taken it to a trip to a lake on sunny weather alongside with my Olympus Em10 MkIV. Same story here as well. The R6 produced pale images compared to the Olympus and my iPhone. The sky was overexposed and faces were underexposed in many cases. Since I was not able to figure out what was the reason I have decided to return the R6 for this reason.

What I have noticed however: the problem only occured in very sunny conditions. In modest light the Canon was superior to the Olympus and iPhone. Maybe the Canon needs an UV filter to get the Jpgs right?

This column is intended for something inspiring, something meaningful or at least something that makes any sense at all. I‘ll work on it.
