So as not to bore you with more test pictures. I just did the same thing Kim did with another still doll model.

I tried out every manual white balance setting on the thing with an ISO of 800, and got nice clear pictures, with obvious differences in color. Then I put it on the automatic setting that just cuts the flash off. Doing that got me the most accurate color, but the face was blurry on the doll. (This was what I was doing the other day with Marc). The next best color was putting it in P mode but automatic WB..they were very close, but the face was clear.

So I suppose, for now, until I really learn this, in order to avoid the blur, I am better off putting it in P mode to avoid the blur and pick the white balance Icon that best fits the situation...which seems like the auto WB was doing the trick. I guess this computerized camera is smarter than me..Whoda thunk it.
