Using Natural and Artificial Lighting

(WHITE BALANCE)

Adjust the white balance so that a white subject will appear white. At purchase, the white balance is set to [AUTO]. Normally you do not need to change the setting, but if the camera is having difficulty determining the white balance when shooting an object of a single color or when shooting under multiple light sources, you can change the setting.
