Fine-Tuning White Balance
At settings other than K(Choose color temp.), white balance can be “fine-tuned” to compensate for variations in the color of the light source or to introduce a deliberate color cast into an image.
❚❚The White Balance Menu
To fine-tune white balance from the shooting menu, select White balance and follow the steps below.
1Display fine-tuning options. Highlight a white balance option and press 2 (if a sub-menu is displayed, select the desired option and press 2 again to display fine-tuning options; for information on fine-tuning preset manual white balance, see page 169).
2Fine-tune white balance.
Use the multi selector to fine-tune
white balance. White balance can be fine-tuned on the amber (A)–blue (B)
axis in steps of 0.5 and the green (G)–
magenta (M) axis in steps of 0.25. The horizontal (amber-blue) axis
corresponds to color temperature, while the vertical (green-magenta)
axis has the similar effects to the corresponding color
compensation (CC) filters. The horizontal axis is ruled in increments equivalent to about 5 mired, the vertical axis in increments of about 0.05 diffuse density units.
