Thanks to my little\/not so little \u2665Angel\u2665 for the homemade macarons!\u00a0 Too pretty to eat so I thought it would be a good opportunity to do some product photography showing what you can get with a few of my cameras–the ones that I personally think produce the nicest starting color right out of camera.\u00a0 The internet really loves an argument and the endless debates over “color science” and other minor things is pretty interesting if you ever stumble into the silly world of photo forums.\u00a0 In the end, shoot what you like with what you have, it really is that simple.<\/p>\n

So here are photos from 3 different cameras.\u00a0 Camera info at the end of the post.\u00a0 Shot with window light in the morning at about 9:30am.\u00a0 Processed from the RAW files with the picture profiles and white balance settings I had from whenever I last used them.\u00a0 Like with most things in the modern digital photography world, all these colors and brightness etc can be adjusted infinitely to your taste.<\/p>\n
