Jim,

Your colours are excellent, on your case ... You don't need an M8

M8 folks:

Do the odd colors in these photos look somewhat like the M8 magenta problem?

I shot them some years ago with a Kodak/Nikon DCS460 which had been
manufactured in 1997.  It had a Kodak 6.2 CCD 1:37 sensor.

When this camera was first released in 1995 it cost $35,000, and at the end
of it's manufacturing cycle in 2000 it cost $2,500.

In order to get rid of those colors I ended up having to use a hot mirror
filter, actually a bunch of them... for the different filter sizes of my
lenses.

One would think that Kodak would have made a "fix" in their sensor
technology by now, some nine years later.
