Hi Chuck,

Sorry for the delayed reply. "Picture Modes" could indeed be the 
problem. I didn't realize that the portrait mode says "RGB +1". Exactly 
what channels that "ups", I don't know, but I bet that's the problem. I 
will make sure to shoot in "natural", nothing changes at all in that 
mode. My white balance seems fine.

I don't use the Olympus editing software, unless I absolutely have to, 
so until I toy with that and a few images, I won't know. Won't have time 
to do that until later today.

Currently I use Bridge to upload and convert to .dng at the same time 
for RAW files so that I can edit them in ACR.

Thank you, and if I see anything odd or anything I have questions about 
after working in Olympus Master, I will let you know. :-)

Candace
