I shoot lots of flowers and I think this isn't just a D200 problem or a Nikon problem, it's a digital-camera-sensor problem in general. I've never used a digital camera of any make or model that could deal with really intense floral reds, particularly when there's sunlight anywhere nearby. We've got an azalea in our front yard that turns into a shocking mass of intense slightly-violet red every May, and I've been trying to capture the effect with various cameras since 1997 when we bought the place. No luck so far. -T -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
