Check out that link and look at the red. The real red is a darker one. The EP3 blows out reds and oranges and brightens colors up substantially. To the point where it is not realistic. Thoughts? Something I can change?

Problem with camera?

Is that JPEG from the camera? Try setting to Natural tone instead of Vivid. If it's RAW crank up the color noise reduction in ACR or CaptureOne, it will tone it down without losing details.

Also iEnhance will crank up the saturation, so disable that too.

Is your E-P3 set on sRGB or Adobe RGB?

I'll give that a try. Where do you change those settings?

I like the camera but the blowouts of the colors is out of control.

You have to go to your menu and mess around with the camera settings option (the screwdriver icon). Be careful to remember what you change though.
