Notice how the background is brown on top and bluish on the bottom... yes that is a white background. I wonder if I play around with my camera if I can get better results.
Yeah, it is a problem that has been driving me crazy. I've tried all sorts of lights, light boxes, and every "basic" setting on my camera with inconsistent results. Finally, I watched a you tube video on white balance and learned how to do a custom white balance setting. I still need more practice with that, and then I need to work on adjusting exposure. No more "full auto" setting for me.
