to help me better understand. You set the camera on autobalance. I assume it was in macro mode and the iso was 100?

Now you just focused on your subject and put the coffee filter in font of the lens. How long did you leave the filter there? I guess you could do this with a blank piece of printer paper?

I have a cannon s-30 and IMO I can never get a true color pic with this camera when shooting tanks with 20k

also is there a way I can reset my camera. I feel that i hit so many buttons I dont know what settings I have it set on.

one more question....

do you have to do the coffee filter thing every time you take pics or will your camera remember the settings?
