This function allows you to reproduce a
white colour closer to the tone in real life on
the pictures recorded under sunlight,
halogen lighting, etc. in which the white
colour may appear reddish or bluish.

• When setting the white balance to the

mode except [AUTO], you can finely
adjust the white balance. (P71)

• This is fixed to [AUTO] in Auto mode [0].

Auto White Balance

Use of auto white balance adjustment in
inappropriate lighting conditions may result
in reddish or bluish pictures. Where the
subject is surrounded by many light
sources, auto white balance adjustment
may not operate properly.
In this case, set the white balance to a
mode except [AUTO] manually.
