Is it just the camera or are those tail lights yellow

I would say that the camera is tricked by the dull conditions and is allowing more light in, which in turn is washing out the red colour.

This is my point about purchasing leds on eBay etc. Cameras can not produce a true indication of light output without some sort of benchmark reference point.

AK, would know what I'm talking about. Perhaps he can explain for me

Thanks I did wonder about the outside darkened conditions, daylight photos would be better for photographing so the aperture closes quicker without letting in the extra light.

There's two issues at play, exposure and white balance. The cameras in Smart phones aren't that smart and generally don't handle these things particularly well in extreme situations. Exposure should be metered on the brightest object which should then be properly exposed maybe if the tog knows what they are doing. Not something easily done with a smart phone sadly and these images will typically be over exposed and washed out.

Colour balance is most accurately handled using a white balance card. It sorts out colour cast issues nicely. To try and explain white balance, you might have noticed light bulbs generally are warm (4000k) or cool (6500k). If you photograph something at either end of the spectrum without colour compensation adjustments in the camera (sunrise, day, cloudy, night etc) the colour shifts and you get what is known as a colour cast which is to say the colours are not true. This is an attempt to simply explain a fairly technical topic but I hope you get the picture (ahem).

Here's an example of extreme colour cast that illustrates the point. When shooting in filtered light in the rainforest the light is actually kind of green as well as shaded. You don't notice it with the eye but its there. The camera boosts the magenta to compensate for the extra green and the images are kind of funky looking. That's where a white balance card comes into play. Check the links for more information.

Okay. I saw a Scot drop a penny and it hit him in the back of the head as he bent down to pick it up.
