White Balance
White balance (WB) is for making the white areas look white. Normally, the
Auto [
Q
] (Ambience priority) or [
Q
w] (White priority) setting will obtain
the correct white balance. If natural-looking colors cannot be obtained with
Auto, you can select the white balance to match the light source or set it
manually by shooting a white object.
