40 RECORDING – ADVANCED OPERATION
White balance is the camera’s ability to make different types of lighting appear neutral. One auto-
matic 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.
