WHITE BALANCE
In digital photography, white balance ensures neutral, i.e. natural,
reproduction of color in any light. It is based on the camera being
preset to reproduce a particular color as white. You can choose
between several presets, automatic white balance, two xed manual
settings and direct setting of the color temperature.
In addition, you have the option of adapting all settings precisely to
the relevant photographic conditions and/or your own preferences.
