X100f evf problem

[RosieC]

My husband was taking some photos of a green damaged parasol today in the sunshine outside. It appears blue in the evf but green on the LCD. How can we correct this? I have tried the evf settings but the colour does not change from blue to green .

Thanks.

Have you specifically tried the EVF and LCD *colour* settings? That is, Setup menu, then into Screen setup, then make sure that EVF Color and LCD Color are both set to the same value (I'd recommend setting both to 0 unless you find you've got good reason to do otherwise). Sorry if you've already done all this, but it's the only thing I can think of.

Just one other thought: Auto white balance can do strange things to colours under certain lighting conditions. It would be worth checking to see if you get the same effect using, say, Daylight WB. (For example, I'm now looking at a green cushion using Auto WB under bright artificial light (LED bulbs): the cushion looks green in the LCD but blue in  the EVF. If I use another WB setting, the effect goes away.) Anyhow, I hope your problem is something simple like this!

Thanks. I tried the colour settings for the evf but it made no difference so we will try the other settings instead and let you know how we get on.
