Correcting Greenish Image Areas from Mercury Lamps

In shots of evening scenes with subjects illuminated by mercury lamps, the subjects or background may appear to have a greenish tinge. This greenish tinge can be corrected automatically when shooting, using Multi-area White Balance.

zzPress the <n> button, choose [Hg Lamp Corr.] on the [4] tab, and then choose [On] (=26).

zzOnce the setting is complete, [] is displayed.

zzTo restore the original setting, repeat this process but choose [Off].

After you are finished shooting under mercury lamps, you should set

[Hg Lamp Corr.] back to [Off]. Otherwise, green hues not caused by mercury lamps may be corrected by mistake.

Try taking some test shots first to make sure you obtain the desired results.

In continuous shooting (=40), this setting is set to [Off] and cannot be changed.
