12-1 Full-Time Auto White Balance (FAW)
The FAW function adjusts the white balance
value automatically as the lighting condition
changes.
This mode is convenient when you have no time to adjust the
white balance or when the camera is moved frequently in and
out of places under different lighting conditions.
Setting procedure
The FAW function can be activated with the FAW item on the
CAMERA OPERATION menu.
This item allows allocation of the FAW function to one of the
WHT.BAL switch positions, A, B or PRST.
☞ See “CAMERA OPERATION Menu Screen” on page 75.
The FAW (Full-time Auto White balance) function cannot
provide optimum white balance with a subject outside the
FAW adjustment range, for example when it contains only
a single color or not enough white color.
