Hi Russ, Try using a white sheet of paper in a test shot to be able to correct for the colors. There are two ways to make that : A) Does the Olympus E10 allows for a custom white balance ? The canon cameras for instance allows you to shoot at a white piece of papers and to choose that picture in camera as your white balance picture. This gives perfect match.. You can use a grey card (I've no fixed opinion about whether one is better than the other, may be some here knows). B) If the Olympus E10 doesn't allows custom wb, use the test picture of the white sheet of paper or grey card in order to find out the corrections you need in the curve tool. Don't use the Auto wb option in any case, but rather the daylight or the flash wb, in order to keep consistence between your test white sheet and the following portrait pictures.. Apparently the auto-wb doesn't like your studio setting, try to put it on daylight or on flash, if you don¹t' have the custom wb option and use it to find out which wb options calls the least correction.

Probably.. Yes, that's what I'd do; I think that the awb is probably rather aimed at usual shooting situations; studio lighting isnt' what the usual guy is doing. Look whether you have the possibility to make a custom wb setting, that would be the best solution. If not, the tests with a white sheet of papers, will allow you to find out which wb settings is the nearest match and use the grey balancer dropper to find out which curves you need to apply in PS systematically. Unless your studio settings changes, you may be able to apply that curve with a PS action to all your shots. -- Christiane
