MEMO
• In AUTO mode, the correct white balance may not be
achieved for subjects such as close-ups of people’s
faces and pictures taken under a special light source.
Select the correct white balance for the light source.
• When the flash fires, the white balance setting for the
flash is used. Consequently, to achieve a particular
effect, the flash mode should be set to
CSUPPRESSED FLASH (p.52).
• The color tones may vary depending on the shooting
conditions (light source, etc.).
• After taking the picture, check the image color (white
balance).
