Hi all

 

I have a Canon RP and and experiencing a strange issue.

 

when I use Automatic (A+) mode all my images come out ‘natural’ colour. As soon as Iswitch to another mode (Av, Tv, M etc) the images take on a blue cast. 

any thoughts/suggestions.

Hi and welcome to the forum:

When in Av, Tv etc. I suggest checking the Light Balance feature in the P3 of Red menu system - I suspect it is set at Tungsten rather than Automatic. Ref the User Guide, P142.

Since tungsten lighting gives off a warm light, the Tungsten setting will make the light look bluer to make the resultant image seem more neutral, however in normal daylight conditions, it will make everything look bluer than normal.
