●●When [AWB] (Automatic White Balance) is set, the color rendition is adjusted in accordance with the light source. However, if the scene is too bright or too dark or if other extreme conditions apply, the pictures may appear reddish or bluish. The White Balance may not operate correctly if there are different types of light sources.

●●We recommend setting [AWB], [] or [] under fluorescent, LED, or other types of artificial lighting.

●●The [White Balance] setting is fixed to [AWB] in the following cases:

Scene Modes ([Scenery], [Night Portrait], [Night Scenery], [Handheld Night Shot], [Food], [Sunset])

●●Even if the camera’s power is OFF, the set White Balance is remembered. (If the Scene Mode is changed, the white balance setting returns automatically to [AWB].)
