will end in the time selected for Custom Setting c2 (Auto off timers; 0160).

The camera can store only one value for preset white balance at a time; the existing value will
be replaced when a new value is measured.
Note that exposure is automatically increased
by 1EV when measuring white balance; when shooting in mode M, adjust exposure so that
the exposure indicator shows ±0 (059).
