My Lily changed from purple to blue??

[chaukian]

I was deeply amused by all the Lily shots taken with my E620 n 14-42mm kit lens....
The purple coloured Lily was transformed into a Blue coloured Lily..:duh:??
This was the 1st time i hv encountered such problems...none were recorded during my times v E520..

Tried different lenses and all turn out the same..tried with different WB..same result...
Any sifu here can explain this?? SOS!

Purple colour is the Achilles heel of a lot of cameras... Your photo looks underexposed. Try to increase its exposure by about 0.5EV...

Here's a photo of a lily I took...

oic..u mean lots of camera failed to capture this colour accurately?
i took the lily shot at the same place v my E520 during my last outing and it seems ok..
My fren who is shooting v me was using pentax K200d n his colour looks excellent...

E520 v 70-300mm @ 300mm

Exposure will affect colour reproduction besides WB. Perfect colour reproduction needs the proper WB and exposure.
