exposure compensation and flash
exposure adjustment are set to ±0.

In mode, white balance data cannot be
read.

(Flash Off).
Use the same flash setting as the one that will
be used for shooting when you set the white
balance. If the white balance setting
conditions and shooting conditions are not
the same, the correct white balance may not
be obtained.
When the flash is set to (Auto with red-
eye reduction) or (Auto), the flash may fire
while the white balance data is recorded to
the custom white balance. If this happens,
make sure the flash also fires when you shoot
the image.

to shoot the image.
The custom white balance will not be canceled
even if you reset camera settings to default
(p. 71).
