I have taken maybe 100 flower photos with the M8 unfiltered. Since  
they are all indoors but with natural light, most of the shots are  
with flash so I can control the DOF. I did find a photo of a flower  
the exact same color as Sonny's and taken with and without flash. The  
flash photo is a nice deep purple and accurate. The available light  
picture came out pink, just like Sonny's. The M8 was set to AWB. I  
know that can be a little flaky in natural light. The SF24D sets the  
WB correctly. I don't use AWB anymore.
