canon MV 930 digi camcorder?

I've been filming my flower beds in full bloom to send to a friend and also to keep a log of what's where when preparing for each season. To compare I've taken a video then Stiils on the SD card, no difference.

The camera is just over 1yr.1mth 11days old so it's not as though it's an old camcorder. The colours of the flowers are not anywhere near their true colour spectrum. eg: Reds ones come out more towards washy red or even toward orange. Yellows washy Yellow to white. Greens tint towards yellow. Blue towards washy mauve, even some of the ornamental grasses and lawn show yellow tint. I've tried shaded areas to see if it's sunlight causing it and no difference still colours not right.
Taken in weak not very bright sunlight and most with back to sun. I've tried many settings with similar results. Any ideas? should I give up photography?

I've given up on Canon as I sent Canon an email 5days ago and am still waiting. It's a bit like waiting for the petrol companies to drop their prices now oil is cheaper, and waiting goverment assistance in cutting tax on fuel, [Don't hold your breath].
Many thanks in anticipation.
