Camera help: Orange/brown color?

[Slojo69]

So I picked up my magnifier today to check out my trichomes and what I see is crystal clear normal colors, nothing orange or anything. But what my camera sees it this:

Now how can I make that orange go away? been messing with the settings, but I'm not a camera guy at all. It takes normal pics otherwise, like these:

So yea, Iono what it's doing with the Magnifier but any suggestions on what setting I should mess with would be great!

Also been away from toke n talk for awhile, sooo sup incase anyone missed me, prolly not, but still! hehe

Looks like a lighting issue,sunlight or daylight spectrum bulbs seem to work best for me.

either the lighting your using is horrid or you have your cameras white balance on some "cloudy" or "shady" setting. What camera are you using?

Im using a Nikon Coolpix L20:

And the magnifier has a light on the bottom of it that I can't shut off, it's on when the magnifier is on like so:

Ya the lighting and white balance is all on auto, tried different settings of both, just made things worse haha.

This is a pretty easy solution. With mh or hps lights you will never get a good pic, your lucky not to get bars (wavelengths of light) in those pics. But what you can do is upload them to your computer, then use the temperature setting, and slide it more towards the blue side until it looks normal. Basically, nothing on your camera is going to change the redness, your gonna have to do it in editing.

oh ok so your using a microscope up against your lens. Well then more than likely your microscope has an incandescent light bulb in it and not an LED so thats the coloring your seeing.

Ahh, thakns for that, Ill mess around on that, but side note, I didn't take the pic's under the HPS, I took the plant out to my work table and did it there, just a normal fluroscent shop light.

Exactly, I was just wondering if there was a way to compensate for that, I know it's just a simple camera, not much as far as settings go, was only like 100 bucks, But it takes wonderful pics for what I do

Adjusting the temperature should still work for you. Good luck buddy.
