I took this photo of my son recently...it's not a great picture, but what the hell's up with the fire? I assume the R-D1's auto WB was struggling to figure out what was going on...the room was lit by compact fluorescents and the woodstove. But that color is nuts. No matter how I adjusted in Lightroom, I couldn't make it yellow without making everything else look very wrong.

I think that is from the heavy IR in the fire coals - an IR filter may help. I have seen the same with the M8, where coals were magenta and flames were yellow...

Aha, I see...I don't have an IR filter...it hasn't been an issue. But I didn't realize hot coals emitted IR. Weird.

FYI,
I see the problem with an IR colour cast in my RD-1 files when I shoot at a high ISO and then try to lighten the picture.

Try using lightroom colour luminance pick and adjust magenta individually ?

If I cared about this pic, that's what I would do, I think. I could get it white that way, maybe...in any event, the good photos from this batch don't have the fire in them.

that color makes sense when you white correct for green.

Magenta hue +100. Could be worst.
