I'm having trouble figuring out the new red color and how it compares to candy red.

From what I can see, the "old" candy red is sort of a bright middle red, while the new radiance red is actually closer to Fender candy apple red.

Can we get a description? Or some better pictures? A better photographer? Hire me for a day so I can set you up to do your own in house photography better?
 
Ok, looking at the Fender color chart, I'm guessing MM Candy Red is closest to Fender Fiesta Red and Radiance Red is closest to either Chrome Red or Dakota Red.

Is Radiance Red metallic?

I just can't tell from the pic....
