FLASH BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENTSETTING THE WHITE BALANCE
You can set the flash brightness when the
photography mode is set to “4”.
Set the Flash Power setting to achieve the
optimum flash brightness when the subject in
the picture is very small or when you are using
close-up flash photography.
● There are ±2 correction levels (–0.6 to +0.6 in
approx. 0.3 EV increments). See P.105 for a
definition of EV.
You can set the white balance when the
photography mode is set to “4”.
Change the white balance setting when you
want to take a picture with the white balance
fixed for the surroundings and lighting when the
picture is taken.
In Auto mode, the correct white balance may not
be obtained for subjects such as close-ups of
people's faces and shots taken under a special
light source. In such situations, select the correct
white balance for the light source. See P.105 for
more information on the white balance.
