Auto white balance is recommended with most light sources. If the desired results can not be achieved with auto white balance, choose an option from the list above or use preset white balance.

White balance can be selected by pressing the WB button and rotating the main command dial until the desired setting is displayed in the control panel.

When WB bracketing is selected for Custom Setting e5 (Auto bracketing set, 0289), the camera will create several images each time

the shutter is released. White balance will be varied with each image, “bracketing” the value currently selected for white balance. See page 120 for more information.
