Custom white balance enables you to manually set the white balance
for a specific light source for better accuracy. Perform this procedure
under the actual light source to be used.
Up to five sets of Custom white balance data can be registered to the
camera. You can also append a name (caption) to the registered
Custom white balance data.
There are two ways to register Custom white balance data. You can either
take a picture and register it, or register an image already saved in the card.
