2.
Point the camera at a white piece of paper or
similar object under the lighting conditions for
which you want to set the white balance, and
then press the shutter release button.
• This adjusts the white balance.
3.
Press SET.
• This registers the white balance settings and exits the
setting screen.
• Dim lighting or pointing the camera at a dark colored
object can cause white balance to take a long time to
complete.
Adjusting White Balance Manually
Under some light sources, automatic white balance under
the “Auto” setting can take a long time to complete. Also, the
auto white balance range (color temperature range) is lim-
ited. Manual white balance helps to ensure that colors are
recorded correctly for a particular light source.
Note that you must perform manual white balance under the
same conditions you will be shooting under. You must also
have a white piece of paper or other similar object on hand in
order to perform manual white balance.

you last used to adjust
manual white balance
to appear on the
monitor screen.
