Canon A70 picture quality

[bleedat]

Hello all,
I recently bought an A70 and have found the pictures to have a pinkish color with skin tones. I can adjust this with software, but would prefer to adjust settings on the camera to avoid it. Any suggestions? I'm using all the default settings for my pics at max res. and size.

Thanks

Adjust your white balance accordingly, and be aware of your light source (i.e. indoors, outdoors, incadescent, flourescent, etc.)

It also helps if you set the effects setting to Neutral when using the flash.

Thanks for the advice, I'll give your suggestions a try and report back. If I can just get my kids to sit still for more pictures.

The white balance setting helped. Much better.
I also turned down the flash a little because it was overexposing. That along with the neutral setting for flash and my pics look like professional ones.

Thanks for the advice
