No experience with the OM-D, Andrew, I am too committed to full-size 4/3 (as
you may well know if you be the same Andrew Elliott in E. Anglla!) but I
suspect that the key is "mixture of daylight and LED", aided (abetted?)
perhaps by Auto WB. Green tints on faces smacks of fluorescent-type
"daylight which isn't" - non-continuous spectrum which really messes colour
rendering.
Just a guess.

Hello OM list
I have recently rejoined this list having just purchased an OMD EM-1. I used
it for the first time yesterday at a charity fund raising event to shoot
candid portraits and group shots. Problem is the skin tones were truly
awful, lots of green tints on faces etc. everyone just looked a bit bruised!
I am sure the fault is mine and not with the camera but I am unsure as to
what I have done wrong. Most pictures were taken without flash under a
mixture of daylight and LED domestic lighting. Auto WB was used, camera set
to "natural," aperture priority, and auto ISO. I understand that this camera
is noted for its natural skin tones so any ideas as to where I have gone
wrong?
Andrew
