Preset White Balance
Preset white balance is used when shooting under
mixed lighting or to compensate for light sources with
a strong color cast (for example, to make pictures taken
under a lamp with a red shade look as though they had
been taken under white light). When
(White bal.
preset) is selected from the white-balance menu, the
camera will zoom in and the menu shown above at
right will be displayed in the monitor.
Preset White Balance
The fl ash does not fi re when preset white balance is measured. As a result, preset white
balance can not be measured with the fl ash.
White Balance
At settings other than (Auto), white balance is shown by
an icon in the monitor.

picture will be recorded).
