NOTES

•When “Auto” is selected for the white balance setting, the camera reads the color of the subject and automatically corrects the color balance. Certain subject colors and lighting conditions can cause problems for the camera as it tries to read the color. If this happens, use one of the other fixed white balance settings in accordance with your current lighting conditions.

•Selecting “Manual” changes white balance to the settings achieved the last time a manual white balance operation was performed.

•You can use key customization (page 123) to

configure the camera so the white balance setting changes whenever you press [￿] or [￿] while in the REC mode.
