5.2 Camera Controls

The next tab is marked 'Camera Controls'.

White Balance

In Auto mode the camera automatically controls the different colour components in the picture to obtain the most natural colour reproduction. This setting is the preferred setting for normal use.

The white balance settings cannot be changed without first switching off Full Auto in the 'Image controls' tab.

Switch off the automatic white balance control to enable Manual control. The current colour setting will remain frozen and will not be influenced by the camera's internal controls. Put the white balance setting in Manual mode when you have a colourful scene and stable lighting conditions.

Indoor / FL / Outdoor: These settings compensate for the specific colour spectrum of these types of lighting. However, these compensations are fixed, so under changing lighting conditions it is better to use the Auto setting. Use the 'Red' and 'Blue' sliders to control the white balance manually referencing to a fixed green setting.
