Chapter 6

Choose from four white balance settings
depending on the type of light:

:Daylight
:Overcast
:Tungsten
:Fluorescent

You can also view the various tones of color
by trying different PRESET WB settings from
the actual light source, and confirming the
result on the monitor.

White Balance

Color reproduction differs depending on the lighting conditions. For instance,
when daylight, the setting sun, or indoor lighting are reflected on white paper,
the shade of white produced will be slightly different for each. By setting the
WB (white balance), you can achieve more natural-looking color.

AUTO (auto white balance)

Automatically adjusts the white balance for any light source.

PRESET (preset white balance)

This function is useful when you need more precise white balance than
PRESET WB can give. Point the camera at a white object located under the
target lighting source before you start shooting so that the camera can
determine the proper white balance for that lighting condition.
