Notes:
If the lighting conditions change, reset the white balance by first returning to the auto setting, and then
reselecting the manual balance.
Try to record with light from a single source. Correct white balance cannot be obtained for two types of
lighting at once.
You cannot set the white balance manually or use the indoor/outdoor modes when the POWER dial is set
to the
[ (Easy Recording) program. If you are already using a mode other than auto, the white balance
returns to auto while you are in the
[ (Easy Recording) program.
When you push the STANDBY button without changing the POWER dial, the current white balance
setting remains in the memory.
If you shoot with studio/video lighting, use the (indoor) mode.
If you shoot under fluorescent lights use the automatic white balance or set the balance manually, since
the camera may not adjust the white balance correctly in the mode.
When you turn the camera off, the camera remembers your white balance setting.
