Image color

The attached three images were taken one after the other, one at time. I can't find out why there coming out with the color variance. The camera does it both in jpg and raw. I've gone through the menu's looking for something that would affect individual photos in a multiple single shot string. I'm having no luck. I talked to a friend of mine that's been a professional photog for decades and he said he's never seen anything like this. It was doing this before and after I downloading the new 1.5 firmware.

I've often had variances in colour balance within a series of shots. Occasionally a shot will be more yellowish than the others when on auto white balance. Your situation is much more extreme than anything I've seen.

I found the fix. Saw the moticon on the view plate and wondered if that cold cause the color effects. Changed it to Auto and bingo, fixed. I must have accidentally changed it when I used the B&W mode.

So it was a CS5 setting problem?
