The color was fine. I mean every telecine has its flaws--sometimes the skin tones are a bit off, or sometimes theres too much contrast, or its too dark or too light. Aside from nit-picking details, the coloring of the Indy set was great. It wasn't that dark, because the VHS versions were much too light if thats what you are comparing it to, and I didn't think there was any color-shifting. The skin-tones I felt were occassionally a bit on the red side, but not alarmingly so, and it could very well be the way it was photographed. I thought the set was extremely faithful to the original photography (barring those one or two touch ups).
