Changing the White Balance Mode

The white balance mode adjusts the white balance so that you can capture your subject in its natural colors regardless of the light source. The auto mode will suffice in most situations.

The auto mode automatically adjusts the white balance based on the white areas, ensuring that white is reproduced as white regardless of the light source. Consequently, a subject that lacks in white tones as a whole or that is dominated by dark tones may not achieve an appropriate white balance. Change the white balance mode to shoot such subjects.

Switching White Balance Modes

The mode screen will change in the following sequence as you switch the white balance mode:

Auto Mode (no display)

Daylight Mode

Cloudy Mode (Overcast Mode)
