White Balance
The color of light reflected from an object varies with the color of the light source.
The human brain is able to adapt to changes in the color of the light source, with
the result that white objects appear white whether seen in the shade, direct
sunlight, or under incandescent lighting. Digital cameras can mimic this
adjustment of the human eye by processing images according to the color of the
light source. This is known as “white balance.” For natural coloration, choose a white
balance setting that matches the light source before shooting.
Although the default setting,
Auto , can be used under most types of lighting, you
can apply the white balance setting suited to a particular light source to achieve
more accurate results.
* Seven settings for fine-tuning become available. The “+” direction increases the blue hue and the
“–” direction increases the red hue.
When white balance is enabled, the current setting is displayed during shooting
(
A
8). When Auto is selected, an icon for the current setting is not displayed.
