Leica IC80 HD Manual 22
The white balance ensures that the
specimen is shown in neutral colors. We
recommend carrying out a new white balance
adjustment whenever you change the illumina-
tion type or color temperature. This is particu-
larly necessary if you are working with halogen
light that can be switched from yellow (low
intensity) to blue (high intensity).
You can carr y out the white balance
using the camera's own menu or via the
camera trigger.
The white balance of the camera is
factory set to automatically provide opti-
mum results when used in conjunction with a
Leica LED illuminator.
Manual white balance
