3White Balance CorrectionN

Users familiar with using color temperature conversion or color compensating filters will find this feature handy.

Set the white balance correction.

Press the <S> key to move the “” mark to the desired position.

B is for blue, A is amber, M is magenta, and G is green. The color balance will shift in the respective direction.

On the upper right, “SHIFT” indicates the color balance bias and correction amount.

To cancel the white balance correction, press the <S> key to move the “” mark to the center so that “SHIFT” indicates “0, 0.” Press <0> to exit the setting and return to the menu.

During the white balance correction, <2> will be displayed in the viewfinder and on the LCD monitor.

One level of the blue/amber correction is equivalent to 5 mireds of a color temperature conversion filter. (Mired: A measurement unit indicating the density of a color temperature conversion filter.)
