I thought of that as well, and may test it a little more today. If an LCC takes on a cast because of subject matter then neutralizes that cast, wouldn't the concept be flawed? After all, all it is supposed to do is eliminate the faults of the sensor/lens combination. If this were the case the only good way to do LCC's would be shooting on completely neutral backgrounds so the only color cast and falloff caused by the sensor and not subject matter is removed.Btw, do you think that the central magenta cast is related to the subject? It seems to be a close match to the white vehicles/foliage in the middle ground of your image.
Yes, shot seconds after the first image. White balance was default. Do most force the back to a set WB when using a TC? Of course, the problem seems extreme no matter what, in fact it seems my image circle isn't large enough.Wayne, what WB setting did you apply to your image and LCC prior to rendering the LCC? And did you by any chance adjust WB for the image and not the LCC before you applied it? Finally, was the LCC frame shot immediately after the image under similar lighting conditions?
I shot this with and without the center filter, and end result is very similar either way.
Going to do some more testing today with the 35 as well as the 47. My results certainly seem much worse than I'm seeing from Tashley's images so maybe I'm still missing something in the process.
