White Balance (P, S, A and M)
The color of the light refl ected from an object varies with the color of the
light source. The human brain is able to adapt to such changes in color, with
the result that we see white objects as white, regardless of whether they are
in the shade, direct sunlight, or under incandescent lighting. Unlike the fi lm
used in fi lm cameras, digital cameras can mimic this adjustment by process-
ing information from the camera’s image sensor (CCD) according to the color
of the light source. This process is known as a “white balance adjustment.”
In and modes, white balance is adjusted automatically to suit the
selected scene. In P, S, A, and M modes, you can choose from the following
white balance options:
