Title: Reds

I real a lot about the Olympus cameras having problems with reds. Do y'all see any problems in the cardinal shots I've posted in the past or these?

Maybe a little oversaturated and contrasty. Try backing one or both off a little and see what happens. I know that I have to set my Canon back a little or the jpegs straight from the camera tend to be too red.

I don't have the technical skills that you have, so all I can say is No, No problem here.

Actually, cardinals are oversaturated and contrasty. My wife's Olympus also produces very saturated reds, but these don't seem unrealistic at all. Is #1 sharpened just a tiny bit?

Very little USM used.
