Blue LED Lighting showing up as purple

Using a Canon 60D and having some issues taking photosgraphs that use intense blue LED lighting and showing up as purple instead of blue

 

Below is an example of  a set I am trying to shoot but the blue is turning out purple.

 

 

I have tried all the different color balance settings which will affect white causing it to be a cool white and all the way to warm white but the blue uplighting remains purple.

 

What I also found interesting is that I took some shots with my iphone and the blue comes out correctly.


 

Anybody know how I can fix the problem or is this a limit with the sensor on the 60D? Would a higher end Canon camera fix this?

This is a very old thread but whatever the cause the solution is simple. A very easy and quick edit in Photoshop. No filters are required.
