• If you select [AUTO], the IR sensor
decides if the surrounding light is indoor
light or sunlight and automatically sets an
even more accurate white balance.

a picture beyond the available white

reddish or bluish. Also, auto white balance
may not operate properly if the subject is
surrounded by many light sources. In these
cases, adjust the white balance.
