Comparison of Nikon Coolpix 900
to Mavica FD-7 Colours
After a quick perusal of the newsgroups and related support forums for the Nikon Coolpix 900, I realized that the colour problem has not yet properly been resolved. In particular, there is the question of the blue African violets mentioned elsewhere. The following are examples of photos taken by the Sony Mavica FD-7 and the Nikon Coolpix 900. The photos have only been resized, no other adjustments have been made. Click on each photo to see the original untouched version.
