Panasonic GF2, Skin tone

[Blu-By-U]

Have been using the GF2 for a few months.

While reviewing some of my photographs taken over the weekend with my E-5, I find that photographs taken with the GF2 of human are not as vibrant as those shot with the E-PL1 or E-5. The scenery shots are without any complains. Any idea or is my settings off?

That's because Panasonic cameras tend towards the neutral side of colors, whereas Olympus cameras produce saturated jpegs.

But it is a matter or preference. Many photographers shooting film happen to use film that is less saturated anyway when shooting portrait, or even black and white...

I'm pretty much out of date with the latest Panasonic camera functionality, which has evolved a fair bit since the GF1.
