Thank You for a stills perspective. The color look as in skin tones good review. I see you are a wedding photographer but a key test for colors is to do astro Milky Ways first the Pegasus part has the yin and yang colors of magenta and a light blue, as for the sky because of the long exposure it will be a shade of blue but the kicker is the colors of the gases high in the atmosphere getting greens and reds/pink mixed and others but mixed with the sky blue and not talking astro modified camera. In my beginning of astro with the A7s in AWB it captured those colors in the night sky that I had to do some research first why the sky at night was so full of colors when pros had a very dark sky. It depends on the time of year. ClarkVision.com The Color of the Night Sky
