[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 514003, member: 13090"] This, meaning the bolded part, I think, is the key... I say this because your aRGB image looks precisely how I would [I]expect[/I] an aRGB image to look if it had not yet been processed. I can't tell you why it is that they do, but aRGB files have always looked flatter and duller to me out of the camera than sRGB files.
