Section Introduction
Setting the white balance correctly ensures that white
objects in the scene appear white and that the overall
colour response of the camera is true to life. There are
several ways of setting the white balance. You can select
the option to White Balance using a white or grey card,
to dial in a user selectable Preset White Balance and
additionally in Custom Mode there is an Automatic
Tracking White balance option. In addition to the white
balance adjustments you can add a tint offset to help
deal with different light sources or to alter the hue of the
captured images.
In previous generations of Sony cameras you were only
able to use white balance presets in Cine EI. The FX9 has
greatly improved white balance flexibility in the Cine EI
mode and you are able to set the white balance of your
choice.
