I've got 3 DSLR's. No they are not the same. But they all make NGC2070 blue/cyan and skin tones, well, not like Marvin's.
ok well go back and have a good look at my initial post Peter. you will see the attached graph. You have avoided talking about modified DSLR's for some reason? if you are going to lump the colour balance discussion (and the reporting thereof on MelbMeadeScopes@yahoogroups.com by some members) then make it a balanced discussion.

I fully agree that most images are not right, so what? I admit that I frequently say "nice image" - just because that person or persons who posted the image need encouragement or maybe not to be discouraged from posting. They will find the day when they discover for themselves that their images are not good and have improved out of sight with subsequent attempts. Some just never get it right (i am in this group) and some just don't care. I would like to thank you for your posts, frank discussions and I do hope that you have recovered from that stray shot from Marvin- btw - one from a pentax from the lunar eclipse last year
