I have seen this problem from time to time on wedding photos where the
ushers are wearing grey morning suits. To the eye all are the same shade of
grey, but to the camera there were two distinct colours - I always surmised
that one was natural fibre and the other was synthetic.  I havn't noticed it
since we went digital - perhaps today they all get the suits from the same
outfitters!
