Coloured stars -yes!

From a comparison with the spectral colours given in CnebulaX software ( see attached screen dump), your camera certanly seems to be showing generally correct star colours. More sensitive in the yellow and the fainter red stars ( not to many in the field) are more white. The processing may have exaggerated the colours due to saturation.....
