On my (calibrated) monitor the Rollei image doesn't have 'warmer tones,' it has a vivid color cast. Part of the anomaly is that it had no sRGB profile (standard for web). Shouldn't it look something like this (attached)? I happen to like both versions – Rollei for content, Canon for plausible color.
