Will, is that 1.07 update that you are meaning?
"Corrects a phenomenon where captured images may tend to appear somewhat magenta depending on the shooting scene."
I have not had that.
I have done some more investigation on my end with my colour problems and they are not necessarily specific to the 50D. I shot one league with the 40D and I'm going through colour corrections right now and it's a nightmare.
I rarely shoot this late in the summer sports season and my problems seem to relate more to the HUGE differences in skin colour I am getting but when you stop to really look at the kids when you shoot, the camera is closer than I gave it credit for. Some kids are still paper white while many are very deeply tanned, some sunburned and lots that are all over the colour map. Yes, I could print them as is but my phone would be going nuts at delivery time.
I've already turned saturation down but as mentioned before, it's a bigger problem with the very pale kids and the deeply tanned ones now are getting greys in the shadows.
Solution seems to be bringing a spray can of grey paint and applying liberally to each kid.
I really need a holiday - desperatley.
