A subject can be shot under various types of
lighting conditions indoors (natural, fluorescent,
candlelight, etc.). Because the colour temperature
is different depending on the light source, the
subject tint will differ depending on the white
balance settings. Use this function for a more
natural result.
Once you adjust white balance manually, the
setting is retained even if the power is turned off or
the battery removed.
These effects let you make pro-style scene
transitions. Use them to spice up the transition
from one scene to the next.
