4. Under the lighting conditions you plan to use
when shooting, point the camera at a blank
white piece of paper so it fills the entire
monitor screen and then press the shutter
button.
The camera will adjust white balance settings for the current
conditions, and display “Complete” when it is finished.
5. Press [SET] to register the white balance
settings and return to the shooting screen.
• The white balance setting is retained even if you turn off
the camera.
ISO sensitivity is a value that expresses sensitivity to light. A
larger value indicates higher sensitivity, which is better for
shooting when available lighting is dim. If you want to use faster
shutter speeds, you should use a higher ISO sensitivity value.
Under certain conditions, a fast shutter speed in combination
with a high ISO sensitivity setting can cause digital noise, which
makes an image appear rough. For clean, good-quality images,
use the lowest possible ISO sensitivity setting.
1. In the REC mode, press [SET].
2. Use [S] and [T] to select the fifth option from
the top (ISO Sensitivity).
