White Balance
62
NOTES
• When you select a custom white balance:
- Set
7
[Digital Zoom] to [
B
Off].
- Reset the white balance when you change locations or the lighting or other conditions change.
- Depending on the light source,
g
may keep flashing. The result will still be better than with
[
Y
Automatic].
• Using a custom white balance may provide better results in the following cases:
- Changing lighting conditions
- Close-ups
- Subjects in a single color (sky, sea or forest)
- Under mercury lamps and certain types of fluorescent lights
• Depending on the type of fluorescent light, optimal color balance may not be obtained with
[
e
Fluorescent] or [
f
Fluorescent H]. If the color looks unnatural, select [
Y
Automatic] or a
custom white balance setting.
