I wasn't sure which thread this should go in, lenses seemed most appropriate!
I have just had a new lens (plastic) put into my left eye. When I first took the dressing off I was immediately struck by the coldness of the image that I was seeing with that eye compared with that produced by the nearly 8o years old lens in my right eye. As far as I can work out there is a difference of about 1000 Kelvin between my eyes now.
I suppose this means that from now on the colours I produce in post processing images will differ from those I used to produce. When I get a new lens in the other eye as well, my colour perception will change again.
When the critics say I have got the colours wrong I will know why.
I suppose there is no knowing what anyone’s built in white balance is, maybe we are all different even without new plastic lenses.
Thought I would share this with you.
