Fine-Tuning White Balance

At settings other than (Auto) and (White Bal Preset), white balance can be “fine tuned” by highlighting the desired setting and rotating the command dial to select an option from a sub- menu. Adjustments range from –3 to +3 in incre- ments of one; raising white balance tends to give images a blue cast, while lowering white balance generally makes photos appear slightly yellow or red. In the case of (Fluorescent), the sub-menu offers a choice of bulb types (see table at right).
