Originally posted by psoo I find that the photos I've taken over many decades with Pentax cameras are very rich in color, which I like. Sometimes when I use a non-Pentax lens on a Pentax the lack of rich colors is immediately noticeable. Is this feature a result of Pentax lens coatings or because of the rendering of the image by Pentax software? Do other brands of DSLRs produce similar rich colors? What say ye learned Pentaxians?
It's matter of preference. Personally, I don't generally like Nikon's colours, they seem to me a bit blue. I don't like the colours from my ZS 100, they seem overdone, even the raw right off the camera. But, I suspect it's matter of what you're used to. You just never hear Canon users comparing about Canon colours, or Nikon users complaining about Nikon colours. You learn to live with what you use. But I've many time heard off brand users complain about the colour renditions from other companies. They take some getting used to.
