Auto white balance

Depending on the conditions prevailing when pictures are taken, the pictures may take on a reddish or bluish tinge. Furthermore, when a multiple number of light sources are being used or there is nothing with a color close to white, auto white balance may not function properly. In a case like this, set the white balance to a mode other than [AWB].

1Auto white balance will work within this range.
