Got any suggestions, I have reset camera defaults but still there? Mainly highlights!

Canon Auto WB does not work well with tungsten lighting. In DPP change the WB to the appropriate preset for the light source, or click on a known grey or unclipped white element in the image, or adjust the temperature to the best results. OTOH, AWB should give good results with flash unless it is only fill-flash and the primary source is tungsten or flourescent. If the flash is the primary, perhaps the camera is set to an inappropriate custom WB? Elie / אלי

The RAW file has no rgb color until the converter creates it. Check your settings in whichever converter you are using. JimE

Many people want to retain that color cast because it captures the ambience of the scene. Others want to adjust to a more neutral tone. If you are among the latter, use any one of the three methods I listed above. Elie / אלי
