NOTE

•When “Auto” is selected for the white balance setting, the camera automatically determines the white point of the subject. Certain subject colors and light source conditions can cause problems when the camera tries to determine the white point, which makes proper white balance adjustment impossible. When this happens, use daylight, cloudy, or one of the other fixed white balance settings to specify the type of lighting available.

•You can use the key customization feature (page

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