40 RECORDING - ADVANCED OPERATION
White balance is the camera’s ability to make different types of lighting appear neutral.
One automatic and four preset white-balance setting are available. White balance is set
in the recording menu (p. 35).
The automatic white balance compensates for the color temperature of a scene. Auto
white balance is sufficient in most cases.
When one of the preset white-balance settings is selected, an indicator is displayed on
the monitor; the effect is immediately visible in the live image. To record the ambient light,
set the flash mode to flash cancel (p. 28). The built-in flash can be used with preset white-
balance, but the white balance is set to the color temperature of the flash.
WHITE BALANCE
Cloudy - for overcast outdoor scenes.
Tungsten - household incandescent light bulbs.
