whITe BALANCe
In digital photography, white balance ensures neutral
reproduction of color in any light. It is based on the
Leica M9 being preset to reproduce a particular color
as white.
With the Leica M9, you can choose from ten different
settings:
–
Auto
– For automatic control, which delivers
neutral results in most situations,
– Seven fixed presets for the most common light
sources,
–
,
e.g. for indoor pictures with (prevailing)
incandescent light
–
1,
e.g. for indoor pictures with (prevailing)
fluorescent lighting, e.g. for homes with
warm lighting similar to incandescent
bulbs or around 2700k
–
2,
e.g. for indoor pictures with (prevailing)
fluorescent lighting, e.g. for working
en vironments with cool lighting similar
to incandescent bulbs of around
4,000k
–
,
e.g. for outdoor pictures in sunshine,
–
,
e.g. for pictures with (prevailing)
electronic flash,
–
,
e.g. for outdoor pictures in cloudy
conditions,
–
,
e.g. for outdoor pictures with the main
subject in shadow,
–
For manual setting by measurement
and
–
Kelvin setting
1
– For a directly adjustable color
temperature value.
Note:
When using electronic flash units that meet the tech
nical requirements for System Camera Adapter (SCA)
for the System 3000 and have either the SCA3502
adapter (version 4 onwards) or an appropriate inte
grated foot, the white balance can be set to
Auto
for
correct color reproduction.
However, if other flash units are used, which are not
specially adapted for the Leica M9 and do not auto
matically adjust the camera white balance, the
setting should be used.
