Sony, get your Reds right.

[re_curly81]

I'm lovin my new Sony FS-100, however after 2 years of working with Canon, I'm disappointed by the inaccurate reds.
Sony cameras have always done reds wrong IMO. They always look pink or magenta. Is there a quick way to fix this in the FS-100 Camera Profile, or a limited effect in color correction in post without effecting skin tones?

These jackets should be deep red, instead they look like a camcorder from the 90's.

I'd recommend checking out picture profile threads, they helped me a lot.

Copy this file http://blog.abelcine.com/?attachment_id=17991 to your SD card and put it into your FS-100 .. than go to menu and "Load profiles" from it...

you will have set of 6 NEW profiles from AbelCine - > http://blog.abelcine.com/2012/05/23/new-fs100-scene-files-from-abelcine/

just keep in mind, that ALL other Camera Settings will change, so you have to change them back to what are you prefer personally ..

When you check that Pricture Profiles, you choose which is better, and even with it you still have an options to correct them as much as you need..

I can get ANY color, using RIGHT White Balance and this profiles!! .. to set WB correctrly you can use SET of WB card... - take this FILES and PRINT them with simple printer, as I did with Canon Pro9000 -->
