• About auto white balance
The available white balance range is shown
in the illustration above. When you take a
picture beyond the available white balance
range, the picture may appear reddish or
bluish. Even within the confines of the
range, the auto white balance may not
operate properly if there are many light
sources or there is no color close to white.
In these cases, set the white balance to a
mode other than [AWB].
• Setting the white balance manually
1 Select [_SET] and then press
[MENU/SET].
2 Aim the camera at a sheet of white paper
etc. so that the frame in the center is
filled by the white object only and then
press [MENU/SET].
3 Press [MENU/SET] twice to close the
menu.
• You can also press the shutter button
halfway to finish.
