White Balance (Cont.)

Chapter 6

● We recommend using AUTO for normal shooting.

● When setting the white balance by pointing the camera at white paper, the

setting may be incorrect if the light reflected by the paper is too bright or
dark.

● White balance may not be effective under some special light sources.

● After setting the white balance, playback the image and check the color on

the monitor.
