Custom White Balance Setting
This mode can be selected in the “9 • 0 • - • 3”
photography modes.
Use this setting when you cannot obtain the
correct brightness, such as when the flash does
not reach the subject (is too faint) or when you
are using the flash for a close-up shot.
●
The range for exposure compensation is ±2
levels (–0.6 to +0.6 EV in 0.3 EV increments).
Exposure compensation only functions with the
built-in flash. See P.112 for more information
on EVs.
This mode can be selected in the “
9 • 0 • - • 3”
photography modes.
Change the white balance setting when you
want to take a picture with the white balance
fixed for the surroundings and lighting when the
picture is taken.
In Auto mode, the correct white balance may not
be obtained for subjects such as close-ups of
people’s faces and shots taken under a special
light source. In such situations, select the correct
white balance for the light source. See P.112 for
more information on the white balance.
