∫Auto white balance

The available white balance range is shown in the illustration above. When you take a picture beyond the available white balance range, the picture may appear reddish or bluish. Even within the confines of the range, the auto white balance may not operate properly if there are many light sources or there is no color close to white. In these cases, set the white balance to a mode other than [AWB].
