M240-015
In the early days of color television there used to be a joke that NTSC stood for "Never Twice the Same Colors". For those unfamiliar with the subject, NTSC stands for National Television Standards Committee, an organization that was set up in 1940 in the U.S. to set color TV standards for North America.
Of course, the Europeans (except the French) went with the Phase Alternating Line (PAL) standard so they could be different from the Americans, and the French invented the Séquentiel couleur à mémoire (French for "Sequential Color with Memory") standard, or SECAM, so they could be different from the Europeans, but not the same as the Americans.
At any rate, I have an imitation Tiffany Dragonfly lamp that reminds me of NTSC. This is one of my test subjects, since it offers so many colors. So I have taken a lot of pictures of this lamp.
But depending on the camera, lens, angle of view, and the time of the day, every image comes out just a little bit differently. Although all the images look very similar, I have never gotten two images exactly the same.
But the M240 gave me yet another interpretation. The M240 image is nice by itself, but it certainly deviates more from the other images. Tweaking the WB could not get the colors closer to the other images.
Below are some comparisons.
