Adjusting the White Balance
Under fluorescent lighting, LED lighting fixtures, etc., the optimal White Balance will vary
depending on the lighting type, so use [AWB], [
], [ ], [ ] or [ ].
●
The White Balance may not operate correctly if you take pictures using a flash and the subject is
recorded outside of the effective flash range (→145).
●
In Scene Guide Mode, changing the scene or recording mode will return White Balance settings
(including the White Balance fine adjustment setting) back to [AWB].
●
In the Scene Guide Mode, settings suitable for each scene are made.
■
Auto White Balance
When [AWB] (Automatic White Balance) is set, the colouring is adjusted in accordance
with the light source. However, if the scene is too bright or too dark or if other extreme
conditions apply, the pictures may appear reddish or bluish. The White Balance may not
operate correctly if there is a multiple number of light sources. In that case, set the [White
Balance] to settings other than [AWB] to adjust the colouring.
