Setting the auto/preset/custom white balance

You can adjust the white balance by selecting the
appropriate color temperature for the light conditions.

• Custom white balance is set by selecting [CWB] and

turning the dial while pressing down the F button.

Setting display

When subjects that are not white appear white:

j In the auto WB setting, if there is no near-white color in the image framed in the screen, the white

balance will not be correctly determined. In such a case, try preset WB or one-touch WB settings.

White balance sensor
This camera has a white balance sensor for determining
the light source in the shooting environment. The white
balance sensor measures and calculates the infrared and
visible light, and determines whether the light source is
sunlight, fluorescent lighting, floodlighting, a blue flat lamp,
or other lighting. When shooting, be careful not to cover or
shade the sensor.
