White Balance Submenu

Use the White Balance submenu to correct the color applied to a captured image under different lighting conditions in order to make white areas in the image appear white without any color cast. You can select from these setting options:

ŠAuto (Default) − Use when you want the camera to automatically sense the lighting conditions and adjust the white balance appropriately for optimum color reproduction in the image.

ŠDaylight − Use when you are taking a picture in daylight without artificial lighting.

ŠTungsten − Use when you are taking a picture under normal incandescent lighting, such as the light from tungsten filament light bulbs in household lamps.

ŠFluorescent − Use when you are taking a picture under fluorescent lighting.
