My Canon SD630 seems to render purple blue. What do you know about this?

I first noticed this on the computer while editing photos taken with this recently purchased camera. Yesterday I noticed it while taking a pic of a pretty purple snap dragon. I looked at the flower, then the display, and saw it again. The purple was lost to a thick (a little dull) blue.





Is Photoshop the only way to %26quot;fix%26quot; this? Anyway to rebalance the colors?

Check %26quot;My Colors%26quot; on your camera. It may be set to %26quot;Vivid Blue.%26quot; If not, you can go to %26quot;Custom Colors%26quot; and adjust things to your liking.





Change to the Manual Mode and then press the FUNC button to bring up the menus. Scroll up or down until you find the %26quot;My Colors%26quot; menu and go from there.
Reply:Try the snapdragon with auto-white balance. Okay, I%26#039;m sure that%26#039;s what you used in the first place, but why wouldn%26#039;t that work? I%26#039;m as confused as you are. Report It

Reply:Maybe the problem isn%26#039;t with your camera but your computer monitor! Do you calibrate your monitor? That%26#039;s the only way to get accurate colors on your monitor.





If you use Photoshop to %26quot;fix%26quot; it...and your monitor is at fault...you%26#039;ll be doing a lot of work for nothing. Unless you only look at pics on your computer, and never print them!
Reply:don%26#039;t know about photoshop


but I would go into camera menu


and press reset
Reply:darling, since we have the same camera I think the guy above me is right (Greg S), try calibrating the monitor, it should do it on its own, but sometimes things could get messed-up!....I don%26#039;t think is the camera.











I miss you!
