Adjusting the white
balance (WHITE
BALANCE)
When the white balance mode is set to
AUTO, your camera automatically sets
white balance in accordance with the
recording conditions and adjusts the
balance of all colors in an image. If
you want to fix the recording
conditions or record an image in
specific lighting conditions, you can
set the desired white balance mode.
To reactivate auto adjustment
Select [AUTO] in step 3 .
1 Set the PLAY/STILL/MOVIE
selector to STILL or MOVIE.
2 Select [CAMERA] and then
[WHITE BALANCE] from the
menu.

balance setting.

Tips
The image is affected by the lighting
conditions. The image looks blue under
sunlight in the summer, and looks red
under mercury lamps. Human eyes can
resolve these problems. However, the
camera cannot resolve the problem
without making adjustments. Normally,
the camera adjusts automatically, but if
the image appears in strange colors, we
recommend that you change the white
balance mode.
