In the auto WB setting, if there is no near-white color in the image framed in the screen, the white
balance will not be correctly determined. In such a case, try preset WB or one-touch WB settings.
White balance sensor
This camera has a white balance sensor for determining
the light source in the shooting environment. The white
balance sensor measures and calculates the infrared and
visible light, and determines whether the light source is
sunlight, fluorescent lighting, floodlighting, a blue flat lamp,
or other lighting. When shooting, be careful not to cover or
shade the sensor.
