Under certain conditions, the icon that appears may not match the actual
scene. Especially when there is an orange or blue colored background (a
wall for example),

or the “Including Blue Skies” icons may appear

and it may not be possible to shoot with the appropriate color. If this
happens, try shooting in

G mode
