• When “Auto” is selected for the white balance setting, the
camera automatically determines the white point of the
subject. Certain subject colors and light source conditions
can cause problems when the camera tries to determine
the white point, which makes proper white balance
adjustment impossible. If this happens, select the white
balance setting that matches you shooting conditions
(Daylight, Overcast, etc.)
• You can use the key customization feature to configure the
[W] and [X] buttons so they control the white balance
setting (page 150).
• To select “Auto” with the control key (when the control key
is configured to select the auto white balance setting),
scroll through the settings until “ ” appears on the
monitor screen.
