might be useful to set it manually to avoid an impre-
cise white balance which can be a result of the Auto
WB option.
Custom White Balance
Your P-back have an op-
tion of 3 custom white
balances that can easily
be defined by point and
shoot.
Custom WB is available
when pressing the WB
button at the main menu.
When scrolling to the bottom of the WB options four
options are available:
“Custom1”, “Custom2”, “Custom3” and “CreateWB…”
To make a new custom white balance select Cre-
ateWB… and choose which one you want to Create:
“Custom1”, “Custom2” or “Custom3”
When one of the options are selected the menu will
return to the main menu and the “Make CustomX WB”
will be blinking.
Now you are ready to capture the image that should
be used for white balancing. Place the viewfinder cen-
ter circle on an area (gray card or neutral white sur-
face) and capture the image. You have now set the
“CustomX” white balance and as you will notice, it is
already selected as the current capture white balance.
All subsequent captures will now have the new cus-
tom white balance applied.
This way 3 custom white balances can be defined and
used as shooting white balances.
