Adjusting the color tones (White
balance)
The color tone of the subject changes depending on the characteristics of
the light source. The table below shows how the color tone changes based
on various light sources, compared with a subject that appears white under
the sunlight.
Use this feature when the color tone of the image did not come out as you
expected, or when you want to change the color tone on purpose for
photographic expression.
Notes
• When the exposure mode is set to Intelligent Auto, Superior Auto, or Scene
Selection, [White Balance] is fixed to [Auto WB] and you cannot select other
modes.
• If the only light source available is a mercury lamp or a sodium lamp, the camera
will not be able to acquire the accurate white balance because of the characteristics
of the light source. Use the flash in such cases.
