KWhite Balance [W.BALANCE]

This function allows you to reproduce a white colour closer to the tone in real life on the pictures recorded under sunlight, halogen lighting, etc. in which the white colour may appear reddish or bluish.

nAuto White Balance

Use of auto white balance adjustment in inappropriate lighting conditions may result in reddish or bluish pictures. Where the subject is surrounded by many light sources, auto white balance adjustment may not operate properly.

In this case, set the white balance to a mode except [AUTO] manually.
