Most of the available illustrations of Ottomans are from the 2nd half of the 16th century or latter. Here is an early 16th century book miniature that also includes a rare look at late Mamluks:
Ottomans besieging revolting Mamluks in Damascus
Selim-nama
, MS. Hazine 15978 c.1521-24
On the left are Ottoman sipahis on armoured horses and Janissaries.
On the right are Mamluk cavalry on armoured horses and infantry, both in
takhfifat
and
kallawtat
turbans. The artillerymen wear furry red
zam?
hats.
Does anyone have a coloured image of this?

I have found a small coloured image and a detail of

It confirms the Mamluks’ Zamṭ hats are red and, again, the Janissaries are wearing a variety of colours.
