Nikon 900 - Manual (Page 45)

- 45 - Advanced Settings (M-REC): White Balance
The white-balance setting has no effect when the camera is in
A-REC mode, in which case automatic white balance will be
used. The selected white-balance program will be restored
when the selector dial is turned to M-REC.
To exit the white-balance menu without changing the white-
balance program, highlight BK and press the shutter button
to return to the shooting menu, or press the MENU button to
restore the view through the lens.
White Balance
The COOLPIX 900 automatically adjusts white balance to suit
current lighting conditions when the shutter-release button is
half-pressed. If desired, a white-balance program suited to
specific light sources can be selected. The COOLPIX 900
offers separate programs for exterior (bright sunlight and over-
cast) and interior (incandescent and fluorescent) lighting. To
choose a white-balance program, highlight WHITE BAL in
the shooting menu and press the shutter button. The following
menu will appear.

A white-balance program can be selected from among AUTO
(automatic white balance, the default setting suited to a wide
variety of light sources), SUNNY (for bright sunlight), IN-
CANDESCENT (for incandescent light-bulbs), FLUORES-
CENT (for fluorescent light), CLOUDY (for taking photo-
graphs outdoors in overcast conditions), and FLASH (when
using the flash). Highlight the desired setting and press the
shutter button. An icon corresponding to the chosen program
will appear next to WHITE BAL in the shooting menu. At
settings other than AUTO, an icon indicating the current
white-balance setting will appear in the color LCD monitor
when the selector dial is set to M-REC and the monitor is set to
display camera settings.
