NOTES

When you select the custom white balance:

-Set 78[Digital Zoom] to [BOff].

-Reset the white balance when you change locations or the lighting or other conditions change.

-Depending on the light source, g may keep flashing. The result will still be better than with [YAutomatic].

Custom white balance may provide better results in the following cases:

-Changing lighting conditions

-Close-ups

-Subjects in a single color (sky, sea or forest)

-Under mercury lamps and certain types of fluorescent lights

Depending on the type of fluorescent light, optimal color balance may not be obtained with [e Fluorescent] or [f Fluorescent H]. If the color looks unnatural, select [YAutomatic] or [g Custom WB].
