Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-HX9, User Manual

Page: 126 / 289

Cloudy (Bluish)
Fluorescent (Green-tinged)
Incandescent (Reddish)
Notes
Under fluorescent lights that flicker, the white balance function may not work correctly even
though you select [Fluorescent White Balance 1], [Fluorescent White Balance 2] or
[Fluorescent White Balance 3].
When shooting with a flash in other than [Flash] mode, [White Balance] is set to [Auto].
When [Flash] is [On] or [Slow Synchro], the white balance can only be adjusted to [Auto],
[Flash], [One Push] or [One Push Set].
[One Push Set] cannot be selected while charging the flash.
You may not be able to set some MENU items depending on the selected REC mode. For
details, see “MENU items not available in some REC modes.”
[Details]
To capture the basic white color in [One Push Set] mode
1. Frame a white object such as a piece of paper filling the screen under the same lighting
conditions as you will shoot the subject.
2. MENU (White Balance) [One Push Set] on the control wheel
The screen momentarily turns black, and when the white balance has been adjusted and
stored in the memory, the recording screen is displayed again.
Notes
If the indicator flashes while shooting, the white balance is either not set or cannot be
set. Use automatic white balance.
Do not shake or strike the camera while [One Push Set] is in progress.
When flash mode is set to [On] or [Slow Synchro], the white balance is adjusted to the
condition with the flash emitting.
