White Balance and Colour
Colours in the P10’s standard image settings are realistic, but with enough saturation and contrast to be printed or displayed with no adjustment.
When the DNG raw files are opened in Adobe Camera Raw 5, the images are a less vivid, and could do with a touch more contrast. The major advantage of using the DNG raw format, rather than a proprietary format, is that it can be edited in nearly all raw image-editing suites without the software needing to be updated.
The automatic white balance setting of the P10 also generates pleasing results, although it does have a tendency to render images slightly cool in bright but hazy conditions.
Under tungsten lighting both the AWB and tungsten settings do a good job of removing enough of the orange/yellow colour cast but without being completely neutral. This leaves images with some of the atmospheric ambient lighting that can otherwise be lost.
