Sony RX10-MIV

Is there any setting that can be made on this Sony other than Exposure, Shutter speed and ISO that can have any impact on the RAW output? I sense that the blue channel is over saturated and was wondering if it is a camera issue or perhaps the Lightroom RAW algorithm for Sony is not quite on target.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I use Capture 1 for my Sony raw. Much better than LR.

There is no impact on RAW output on any setting in that camera.

If you need to, you can manually create a custom color profile in Lightroom. Or you can use a ColorChecker Passport to create a dead-accurate one. Lightroom has a collection of color modes as well.

But before undertaking any color adjustments, make sure your display is showing you color that is as accurate as possible - profile the display with an i1 Display Pro or similar profiling tool - otherwise you'll be chasing your tail trying to get the color right. Also, are your prints coming out blue as well? How does the color look when you look at an image on another device - tablet, phone, other computer?

I just created a Preset in Lightroom and use it on Import.

Before you conclude that a given channel is "over saturated" you'd be well off to look at the same scene, taken at the same time, distance, etc. with that and another camera IN RAWDIGGER. Be sure to check the settings in that software, of course.

A scene with a lot of colors would be a good test but so would a plain white target.

In this way you can separate the cause and effect. It might be the camera, it might be LR and it might even be your monitor. But you need to isolate the variables, not just guess.

btw, I have that camera and I don't see that problem. But then, I use many apps other than LR.

Just bought a RXQ)-MIV from a UHH member, so I am anxious to see replies to your post.
