The color temperature indicated on the viewfinder display is highlighted and starts blinking, indicating that the color temperature can be changed. While the indication is blinking, the JOG dial button can be turned to change the color temperature. At this time, the value set for the position (PRST, A, or B) to which the WHITE BAL switch is set is also changed.
