Shooting

Adjusting the white balance

 

In order to reproduce the white accurately, adjust the ratio between the three RGB primary colors. If the white balance is not adjusted properly, not only will the white be reproduced poorly but the color tones of the entire screen will also be downgraded. When you are shooting in manual mode, readjust the white balance whenever lighting conditions change.

You can save adjustments and reselect them by setting the WHITE BAL switch to A or B.

You can also use the preset values.

Use the settings to suit the shooting conditions.
