Problems with colour on Olympus C765

I'm new to digital photography and have just bought an Olympus C-765 UZ
camera.

I've found that when I photograph anything purple, the purples come out as
fairly pale blues (I'm using auto mode). Is this normal or have I got a
faulty camera?

If this sort of thing is normal, what can I do about it?

Thanks for any advice,

Andy

Anything purple? or just purple flowers? if it is flowers you are having the
problem with, chances are that UV light is causing your problem.

Get a filter adapter ring for your camera and put a UV filter on it.
