Olympus E-PM2 Colors?

So I recently bought an Olympus E-PM2. When I started taking pictures, I have noticed that the quality is great and it is very quick. However, when I take a picture of a person in a fair amount of sunlight, they turn out redder than I see them in real life. I know you can edit it to change saturation but I don't want to do that each time and I want to know if there is a setting to change this. The only thing I've tried so far is to keep warm color off.

Thank you!

    You can go into the menu to try to tweak the color balance. It probably will still need some tinkering with software anyway.

    Bear in mind that the camera does not always capture what you see exactly. When there is gross difference in colors and hues, check the white balance setting first then fine tune with exposure settings. If your camera happens to have hue control built-in then either you are very lucky or you are very rich.

    Try hooding the lens.
