Purple hue

[Ambataineh]

Hello everyone,

I was looking at some pictures I took a few days ago on my computer, and some of them had purple hue.

I can't seem to find anything in common in the purple pictures only. all pictures were taken with EOS Rebel SL2, It's a new camera that is well taken care of. I am a beginner, so trouble shooting is not something I can do just yet.

PS: when I view the pictures on the camera's screen they look fine, but when I opened them on the computer they had this purple hue. not all the pictures turn purple, only some. all pictures were taken RAW.

Thank you for your help

What shooting mode are you using on the mode dial?  What is your white balance setting?

If you get the same result when you shoot in full auto, Green [A] mode, then your image sensor is shot.  If not, then you White Balance is probably set to Flash.  Change it to Auto.

I don't believe the example submitted by the OP can possibly be explained by an erroneous or suboptimal white balance setting.

Believe it.  When all I had was T5, initially I would use P mode a lot.  I had to manually raise the flash.  I shot some pictures of the Christmas tree, and gifts being opened.  That afternoon, I went outside to shoot photos, but did not need the flash.  The photos turned out looking almost exactly like the OP’s sample.  Everything was purple and pink.
