Jono,
I'm shooting a Nascar Race all this weekend, but will try to post some shots D3 shots of greens on Sunday with Aperture. I find that Aperture and Capture One are the most accurate on true color. Relative to greens and the D3, I have not seen any problem. Admitting that the greens here in Phoenix are a little more subdued than other locations, but I find the colors to be very true.
Best,
Ray
Steen - thanks for the offer of the RAW file - but it's really the D3 I'm interested in - they're probably the same . . . . .but then, they might not be! That file, on the other hand, looks fine . . . but then it's shot in mid day light, and that was never the problem.
Ray - that'd be lovely, but it's evening and morning light where it seems to go wrong.
The green issue rears it's ugly head for early morning and evening light - in fact, it isn't just greens, I guess it's yellows generally which have been 'nasty' (interesting that Guy picked up the yellow issue on the files from his D300).
here is a link to the D3 website:

if you look at the middle picture on the top row, and the third picture down on the left column, although not just of green, they're both shot in evening light and give an indication of what worries me.
If you're shooting landscape, then evening and morning light is what matters most . . . . so it's cr@p if it's cr@p!
on the other hand, I've been looking at a bunch of NEF files generously sent by Big Gareth of Welsh Wales, and they look really good (greens included).
