Green/Magenta?

Northlight

“North light” from north-facing windows; thus, lit by the blue sky. The color temperature was around 10,000K to 14,000K depending on which measurement (Art’s meter, various cameras) one chooses to believe.

This test was done in 2008 with build 16; it’s now 2010 and we’re up to build 30, which has radically improved the situation. The new REDcolor color space is far more accurate and naturalistic than the earlier color spaces in older firmware, and the new Mysterium-X sensor appears to use different color filtering with improved discrimination (I’m testing this right now and will be posting my findings soon), which makes things even better.

Short (and free) answer: update to build 30. Longer (and more expensive) answer: upgrade to the M-X sensor.
