The white balance setting (unless it is a Custom
White Balance setting) is ignored when you use the
flash. To achieve the desired effect in your shot,
press the flash back down to suppress flash
operation (P.36).
This mode can be selected in the S
photography mode.
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
peoples faces and shots taken under a special
light source. In such situations, select the correct
white balance for the light source. See P.124 for
information on the white balance.
