5D skin tones with \"Portrait\" setting

Perhaps my 5D is defective. I just don't understand the value of the Portrait picture style. Using it turns all caucasian faces a reddish color. I use a fully profiled system.

Are you shooting RAW or JPEGs?

Re: 5D skin tones with \"Portrait\" setting

I don't care for any of the picture styles except neutral. To me the rest of them kind of hokey and too "hot". Neutral also seems to give me the most headroom with regard to holding my highlights.

Anyway, that's my take on it for whatever that's worth to you,
