Adjusting White Balance Manually

When white balance settings seem to take too long when the “Auto” option is selected for
white balance adjustment, it probably means that the light source you are using is outside the
supported color temperature range. Manual white balance lets you adjust white balance and
produces natural colors under a wide range of lighting conditions.
Have a white piece of paper on hand before starting the following procedure.
