S95 daylight white balance everything green!?

TryingToShoot · May 1, 2011

Hello everyone. I don't know if I messed up a setting on my S95 but today I went fishing and it was sunny all day. Instead of using auto white balance I set it to daylight. Everyone of my photos that I shot using that setting came out with a darkish green hue to them. What did I do wrong? Why would using daylight white balance do this? I can't explain it and already deleted the photos accidentally or I would post one here.

Thanks so much!

Try resetting the camera to default settings (Menu > Tools > Reset ALL ) and be sure to format the SD card IN the camera. Hope this helps.

I really don't know why that would be - white balance issues like that usually result in a picture that turns out either to blue and "cold looking" or to yellow. Not green...

Without examples, it's hard to help you, but my guess would be that you accidentally selected a different preset, such as Tungsten.

Make sure 'custom colors' is set to 'off'. There's a 'vivid green' option there you may have set by mistake. I have never used it.
