Hall of Famer
Playing around with the new color emphasis mode on the NEX:
These two turned out great

Thumb tacks, blue:
However the rest turned out poor.
Thumb tacks, green:
I don't know why the yellow bled through.
Thumb tacks, yellow:
Thumb tacks, red:
My thoughts on this mode so far are thus:
1- It is a fun toy. I don't plan on shooting a lot like this, but nice to have the option.
2- Stuck in Auto mode. When shooting in the color emphasis mode you are stuck with what settings the camera sets.
3- Hard to get a great shot. For some reason the NEX seems to only pic up the color if it is parallel with the camera. Any kind of curve or color variance, and it does not know what to do with it.
Overall this is a great addition, but one that due to its limitations I will only use rarely.
