White Balance
Different lighting conditions cast different colors. This setting allows the camera to compensate for this, reproducing colors more accurately and ensuring that whites appear white in the final image. You can also adjust the white balance to produce creative effects. For example, the Sun setting produces a warmer look to the image.
1.In the Capture Menu (see page 62), select White Balance.
2.Use the 
buttons to highlight a setting. The new setting is applied to the Live View screen behind the menu, so you can see the effect of each setting.
3.Press 
to save the setting.
