The original rose is long gone; I had a go with another bloom today; it was very cloudy and dull.
The upper is the CL with 60mm macro, the lower is the SL with the 24-90. Both in Adobe 6.14, both Adobe Standard; no adjustments:
CL auto colour temp is 4300º, the SL auto temp is 5250º
The CL is, to my eye, the more accurate; the SL has a sort of orange tinge to it. I looked very closely at the rose. The tips of the outermost, oldest petals have a faint bluish tinge, the others don't. There are a few darker red spots.
For amusement, I also tried the M240 with 90mm apo Summicron. It doesn't focus as close, so this is a crop. Auto colour temp is 5100º
FWIW, the SL and the M240 are in Adobe rgb colour space; I can't find a setting for this in the CL.
Both the CL and SL would, IMO, with a little gentle tweaking be very satisfactory; the CL does seem in it's raw state to be a bit 'cold'. The M240 looks as if it was glorious sunshine which it certainly wasn't.
