Configuring the White Balance Setting Manually
Certain complex light sources or other environmental conditions can make it impossible to obtain good results when “Auto” or one of the fixed light source settings is selected for white balance. Manual white balance lets you configure the camera for a particular light source and other conditions.
Note that you must perform manual white balance under the same conditions you will be shooting under. You must also have a white paper or other similar object on hand in order to perform manual white balance.
