Correcting Greenish Image Areas from Mercury

In [

] mode, subjects or background in shots of evening scenes

illuminated by mercury lamps may appear to have a greenish tinge.

This greenish tinge can be corrected automatically when shooting,

using Multi-area White Balance.

Press the [

] button, choose

[Hg Lamp Corr.] on the [ ] tab, and then

choose [On] (= 29).

Once the setting is complete, [ ] is

After you are finished shooting under mercury lamps, you should
set [Hg Lamp Corr.] back to [Off]. Otherwise, green hues not
caused by mercury lamps may be corrected by mistake.

Try taking some test shots first to make sure you obtain the
desired results.

In continuous shooting (= 43), this setting is set to [Off] and
cannot be changed.
