Record mode, white balance, and picture mode
Color reproduction differs depending on the light conditions. For instance, when daylight or
tungsten lighting is reflected on white paper, the shade of white produced will be slightly
different for each. With a digital camera, white color can be adjusted to reproduce more
natural white with a digital processor. This is called white balance. There are 4 options for
setting the WB with this camera.
Auto white balance [AUTO]
This function enables the camera to automatically detect white in images and adjust the color
balance accordingly. Use this mode for general use.
Preset white balance [5][2][3][1][w][x][y][n]
8 different color temperatures are preset according to the light source. For example, use
preset WB when you want to reproduce more red in the picture of a sunset, or capture a
warmer artistic effect under artificial lighting.
Custom white balance [CWB]
You can set the color temperature from 2000K to 14000K. For details on color temperature,
refer to “White balance color temperature” (gP. 134).
One-touch white balance [V]
You can set the optimum white balance for the shooting conditions by pointing the camera at
a white object like a sheet of white paper. The white balance achieved with this setting is
saved as one of the preset WB settings.
