[111] Shooting White balance
Capturing a basic white color in [Custom Setup] mode
In a scene where the ambient light consists of multiple types of light sources, it is recommended
to use the custom white balance in order to accurately reproduce the whiteness. You can
register 3 settings.
Note
The message [Custom WB Error] indicates that the value is in the unexpected range, for example
when the subject is too vivid. You can register the setting at this point, but it is recommended that
you set the white balance again. When an error value is set, the indicator
turns orange on the
recording information display. The indicator will be displayed in white when the set value is in the
expected range.
Press WB (White Balance) button
→ [Custom Setup].
You can also set this function by selecting MENU
