The camera has a body and an electronic imager disposed in the body. The electronic imager captures an ambient light image as a multicolored electronic image. Memory is operatively connected to the imager and stores the electronic image as a stored image. The camera has a color adjuster that includes a user interface ambient light detector and color balancer. The user interface ambient light detector has a light sensor and measures ambient illumination to provide an ambient light color value. The color balancer generates a copy of the stored image and modifies the color balance of that copy, responsive to the color value, to generate a compensated image. An image display mounted on the body adjacent the sensor, shows the compensated image. A switch mounted on the body, is switchable independent of the imager, to actuate and deactuate the color adjuster.
