With every Pentax electronic camera I have owned, I have found that
the electronics get confused after a little manipulation and cannot
find their way back to the original readings. Changing the settings
seems to be a one-way street, as far as automation goes. Usually
hitting the green button makes everything work again. Does the green
button reset the white balance in the K-7
I've had a string of several dozen photos taken outdoors in sun, PEFs,
auto white balance, contain a few interspersed magenta cast images.
But it's PEFs. Just go in and make the WB the same as the ones that
look fine and it's fixed.
Never trust a computer to make a decision for you! :-)
