Adjusting the color of a picture
The color of the subject differs depending on the light conditions. For
instance, when daylight, the setting sun or tungsten lighting are reflected
on white paper, the shade of white produced will be slightly different for
each. By setting the WB (white balance), you can achieve more natural-
looking colors.
AUTO
The white balance is adjusted automatically so that colors look
natural irrespective of the light source.
5
For natural colors under a clear sky.
3
For natural colors under a cloudy sky.
1
For natural colors under tungsten lighting.
>
For natural colors under fluorescent lighting.

TIPS
• You can select a white balance setting other than the actual light source, and
enjoy the different color tones on the monitor.
Note
• White balance may not be effective under some special light sources.
• After setting a white balance other than [AUTO], play back the picture and
check the colors on the monitor.
• When the flash is fired with a white balance setting other than [AUTO], colors
may appear different in the resulting picture from the colors you see on the
monitor.
