[QUOTE="J-see, post: 412933, member: 31330"] I'm shooting aRGB all the time and I got plenty blown-outs but never that pretty. It's possible he only partially lost some channels. That would explain the color effects. But green usually pops up in shadow loss. Since highlight clipping is caused by full saturation, usually all is lost or nothing. Only in shadow clipping individual channels might suffer. I've seen it in shadows often, in highlights not really. I've been playing a bit with the curves in the individual channels and, in my opinion, it's not simply (or only) highlight loss since there is data in the colors. [ATTACH=CONFIG]138490._xfImport[/ATTACH] There's something strange going on and it shows at the right side of the histogram. There are some massive spikes but not identical for all three channels. ViewNX says no effects enabled. Unless they look like this on the cam's LCD, I'd gamble on something [I]lost in translation[/I]. Even when I up exposure to more clipping, the colors remain: [ATTACH=CONFIG]138496._xfImport[/ATTACH] Btw, some reds do look strange too now. The RGB channels: [ATTACH=CONFIG]138503._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
