Measure white balance.
In the few seconds before the indicators stop
flashing, frame the reference object so that it fills the
viewfinder and press the shutter-release button all
the way down. The camera will measure a value for white
balance and store it in the preset selected in Step 3. No
photograph will be recorded; white balance can be measured
accurately even when the camera is not in focus.
