The pin...Here from a link on mub (#27's) blog.<br /><br />The pink cast on the photo that should be white is probably (and I'm just guessing after looking at the properties saved in the photo) the camera's auto white balance getting it wrong in artificial light.<br /><br />The rest of this is just me trying to be helpful - I have no idea of your level of skill, but it could be helpful if you didn't know this already :)<br /><br />You can change the white balance setting yourself (in the ok menu) in the camera to create a truer effect. You can try the "custom" or one touch setting where you point the camera at something white or grey (eg a blank white sheet of paper) and set the white balance. As you're using forced flash the camera should hopefully take the flash into consideration, but not every camera I've used has done so and if not you'll quickly see it doesn't help at all.<br /><br />Just don't forget to change white balance back to auto after you're done or future photos under different lighting will have coloured casts...<br /><br />Lastly, white balance isn't available in auto mode if you use it (and possibly scene modes?), but P mode is pretty much the same with the menus available.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-27120069615310611352009-06-18T07:46:53.115-05:002009-06-18T07:46:53.115-05:00I have a piece by J&G Meakin, but am not sure ...I have a piece by J&G Meakin, but am not sure how to find out how old it is, sources I've found in the internet are a bit vague about this particular marking.
