Setting the one-touch white balance
This function is useful when you need a more precise white balance than
preset WB can provide. Point the camera at a sheet of white paper under the
light source you want to use to determine the white balance. The optimum
white balance for the current shooting conditions can be saved in the camera.
This is useful when shooting a subject under natural light, as well as under
various light sources with different color temperatures.
Set [jFUNCTION] to [
V] beforehand. (g P. 111)

dark or the colors look unnatural, you cannot register the white balance. Change
the aperture and shutter speed settings, then repeat the procedure from Step 1.
