Configuring the White Balance Setting
Manually
Certain complex light sources or other environmental
conditions can make it impossible to obtain good results
when “Auto” or one of the fixed light source settings is
selected for white balance. Manual white balance lets you
configure the camera for a particular light source and other
conditions.
Note that you must perform manual white balance under
the same conditions you will be shooting under. Have a
sheet of white paper on hand before starting the following
procedure.
1.
In a REC mode, press [MENU].
2.
Select a “Quality” tab, select “White
Balance”, and then press [̈].
3.
Use [̆] and [̄] to
select “Manual”.
• This causes the object
you last used to adjust
manual white balance to
appear on the monitor
screen. If you want to use
the same settings you
configured during a
previous manual white
balance setting
operation, skip step 4
and perform step 5.
4.
Point the camera at a white paper or similar
object under the lighting conditions for which
you want to set the white balance, and then
press the shutter button.
