Actually, corporate taste does come into play.  Images printed off a
Sony digicam in particular have a pinkish caste to them unless care is
taken to do a custom white balance.  All of the manufacturers have a
look, most are pretty close to each other so they are not easy to tell
apart.  Sony on the other hand could be picked out at the DIMA shoot out
for the pinkish caste.

So I don't have to wear the asbestos too long, I am talking about a
relatively subtle caste in the 5cc range, not a flaming pink look like
an old color print from the sixties.
