I can't believe some people. Some newby on the dpreview Olympus group
posts about a magenta cast in the highlights in images of the Olympus
E-510, and the KOOKS who guard the forum attack the guy, some with
logically, but some are off the charts stupid. One poster refutes the
magenta cast post by posting pictures of his own, but at least FIVE of
the images SHOW a magenta cast!!! Unbelievable! Purple rocks, purple
roads!!!
Look to the image posts from Ben Herrmann about halfway down the
page.

How does a selection of photos that were shot raw and converted with a
non-oem raw converter that probably doesn't correctly read w/b metadata
in the raw file show anything at all? The poster that you refer to
probably has a poorly calibrated monitor.
The poster was attempting to prove that the original poster was wrong,
that there was no magenta issue with the E-510 results and in fact he
ended up posting shots that showed clearly there IS a magenta cast
issue with the camera.
DPReview forums are full of posts like that. Mainly there are posts
about "sharpness" of lenses and noise at high iso, where tiny images are
posted, and nothing can be seen.
Agreed 100%, and if you point out to some of them that a 600x800 image
proves nothing about sharpness, or noise, they go beserk.
Because the forum is moderated, and because the threads are linear
making it harder for an idiot poster to be flamed in a way that would
happen on usenet, idiots proliferate.
It's also a favourite place for shills to hang out.
Good point.
Ha Ha, you resemble that remark, right.
