Before a IR 486 filter on a Leica M8 digi-cam. These dark clothing
items are all black to the eye. Left to right. Pinkish wall,
grey/white t-shirt, black leather belt, black pants, black polyp.
t-shirt, greenish wall column black polyp. jacket, 2 grey cards,
Naugahyde bag, couple of black t-shirts, dark blue dvd case. Totally
uncorrectable from IR pollution from incandescent light. Everything
renders well except quite a few synthetic fabric blacks. If you look
very closely at many black clothes, they are actually very very dark
magenta. This was a marketing nightmare for Leica, and any wedding
photographers!
