z You are recommended to set the white
balance when shooting in the following
conditions.
- The shooting mode dial is set to
and the exposure compensation is
set to ±0.
The correct white balance may not be
obtained when the exposure is
incorrect (image is completely black or
white).
- The zoom is positioned to the
telephoto end setting.
Set the digital zoom to [Off].
- A Shooting mode other than is
selected.
In
mode, white balance data
cannot be read.
- The flash is set to (Flash On) or
(Flash Off).
Use the same flash setting as the one
that will be used for shooting when you
set the white balance. If the white
balance setting conditions and
shooting conditions are not the same,
the correct white balance may not be
obtained.
When the flash is set to (Auto
with red-eye reduction) or (Auto),
the flash may fire while the white
balance data is recorded to the custom
white balance. If this happens, make
sure the flash also fires when you
shoot the image.
- The ISO speed is set to the same
setting to shoot the image.
z The custom white balance setting is not
canceled even if settings are reset to
default settings (p. 75).
