Performing Manual White Balance

Certain lighting conditions can cause auto white balance to take a very long time or can result in a limitation of the ad- justable range (color temperature). If you suspect your cur- rent lighting conditions are causing problems, try performing manual white balance. This sets white balance to a level that can be used under any lighting conditions.

The following procedure describes how to perform manual white balance using a white piece of paper. For optimum re- sults, you should use a special reflective plate that should be commercially available from a local camera equipment shop.

1.Align the POWER/Function Switch with REC.

2.Press MENU. If the basic menu appears, press DISP to switch to the advanced menu.

3.Select “Functions 1” “White Balance” “Manual”.

• “Functions 1” appears on the advanced menu only.
