About the IR sensor A

A

If you select [AUTO], the IR sensor decides if the surrounding light is indoor light or sunlight and automatically sets an even more accurate white balance.

Auto white balance

The available white balance range is shown in the following illustration. When you take a picture beyond the available white balance range, the picture may appear reddish or bluish. Also, auto white balance may not operate properly if the subject is surrounded by many light sources. In these cases, adjust the white balance.

You can finely adjust the white balance. (P70)

We recommend setting the white balance to [AUTO] when taking pictures under fluorescent light.

When you take a picture with the flash, the white balance may not be properly adjusted if the flash level is insufficient.
