avadanielsen Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I'm very new to photography - I cannot figure out why there's a green filter over every photo i take. At first I thought it was because of the sun, but I took photos inside as well and the green look was still there. What is this from? How can I change it so that my photos look clear?

Ed_Ingold Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 What are the settings on your camera? A daylight white balance will look greenish-yellow under fluorescent lights. How are you viewing your images? How do photos by others look on that device (e.g., ones you see on Photo.net)? Give us an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_gallimore1 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Is there a white balance 'shift' set to +9 green, or similar? I got a very good price on a digital camera that was 'broken, all the photos were red', WB was set to +9 red... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Many cameras have a "reset" option hidden somewhere. Find it and reset to default and start again from that. That will likely solve the problem. The advice above is good, but if someone has tinkered with the settings, I strongly recommend just starting over rather than plowing through everything separately. On the other hand, it's not impossible that something is actually broken... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What camera are you using? Film, digital? If film, the solution is easy - get a digital camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Parsons Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 What camera are you using? Film, digital? If film, the solution is easy - get a digital camera. Or else use black and white film - won't notice then, except for possible contrast variations, but may enhance blue skies with clouds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_osullivan Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 It would help if you could post a photo sample. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
