Red Skin tones under flash

[fab4272]

Hi all,

I own a canon ixus v compact camera. My problem is unusual red-orange skin tones whilst taking dark shots under flash. I have read that this is a common problem with this camera. When viewing the images with the Image viewer that comes with WinXP, the skin tones look great, but when developed they come out red-orange. I then use ULEAD photoimpact to correct the colour imbalance.

Are there any 'fixes' for this problem?

Thanks

Fab
