White Balance (Adjusting Hue)

Adjust white balance to suit the light source or weather conditions in order to
make the colors in images match what you see with your eyes.
Use Auto (normal) under most conditions. Change the setting when you

want to adjust the hue of the image you are taking.

* Fine adjustments in seven steps are available. Apply positive (+) to increase blue

hue and negative (–) to increase red hue.
