White balance White balance (WB) tells the camera what the color white looks like. Based on this information, the camera will then display all colors correctly. There are 3 methods to determine the WB: • ATW (auto tracking white balance). The value used depends on the lighting condition selected. It ensures reliable color reproduction when lighting conditions change frequently. • PTL (push-to-lock)) white balance. WB is fixed at the moment the button is pressed. • AWB (autowhite balance).
