    I've noticed that some people have diffculty with their posted photos show true colours.
    Mine seem to be spot on. I use a Cannon power shot.
    What do other people use.

    I think it may have to do with the camera pixels and the resolution on the computer. It mostly depends on the lighting for me though. I use a Kodak camera :)

    I try to put mine in natural light and turn off the flash! No hot spots that way.

    I think natural light is the key to the best true color.

    I think it has a lot to do with the resolution of each person's monitor. We use Canon...but have had good results with our phones too.
