Adjust the white balance so that a white subject will appear white.
At purchase, the white balance mode is set to [AUTO]. Normally you
do not need to change the setting, but if the camera is having
difficulty determining the white balance when shooting an object of
a single color or when shooting under multiple light sources, you
can change the setting.
White Balance Modes

Turn the mode dial to 5/P/A/M/SCENE, and press the
ADJ. lever.

Press the ADJ. lever, or press the #$ buttons until the
white balance menu appears.

Press the !" buttons to select a setting other than [M]
