cannot be selected.
Instead of a white object, a gray chart or 18% gray reflector
(commercially available) can produce a more accurate white balance.
The personal white balance registered with EOS Utility (EOS software,
p.318) will be registered under [O]. If you perform step 3, the data for
the registered personal white balance will be erased.
