Still shopping - which brands screw with color less?
 

I've posted here before and I'm still shopping for a P&S digital
camera. I've become aware that some manufacturers automatically
"enhance" the saturation of bright colors. I would prefer not to have
this, and it occured to me that this MIGHT be fairly consistent within
a brand's line of these low-end (<$250) consumer cameras.
I'd like comments/feedback about which brands, if any, do less of this
"enhancing" and which brands do more. So far, I've been told by a
salesman (seemed more reliable than most) that Canon does less, Kodak
does more. Can anyone add to this list, or even dispute it?
Thanks!

I think that (non-empirical) from what I rememer Konica Minolta cameras
are generally very faithful to true color representation.

imaging-resource.com does a lot of reviews using Imatest to get true
color mapping variance. I'd head over there and check out the models
you're condsidering.

Thanks for your reply. Will check out the KM's in particular. I have
been looking at reviews and at sample photos all over the place, was
just hoping to narrow the field a bit!
