If the exposure obtained in step 1 differs greatly from the standard
exposure, a correct white balance may not be obtained.
In step 3, the following images cannot be selected: images captured
while the Picture Style was set to [
Monochrome ] (p.101), images
processed with a Crea ive filter, and cropped images.
Instead of a white object, a gray chart or 18% gray reflector
(commercially available) can produce a more accurate white balance.
The personal white balance registered with EOS Utility (provided
software, p.366) will be registered under <
O
>. If you perform step 3,
the data for the registered personal white balance will be erased.
