Sony DSC-W570D, DSC-W580 manual To capture the basic white color in One Push Set mode

Cloudy (Bluish)

Fluorescent (Green-tinged)

Incandescent (Reddish)

Notes

Under fluorescent lights that flicker, the white balance function may not work correctly even though you select [Fluorescent White Balance 1], [Fluorescent White Balance 2] or [Fluorescent White Balance 3].

When shooting with a flash in other than [Flash] mode, [White Balance] is set to [Auto]. When [Flash] is [On] or [Slow Synchro], the white balance can only be adjusted to [Auto], [Flash], [One Push] or [One Push Set].

[One Push Set] cannot be selected while charging the flash.

You may not be able to set some MENU items depending on the selected REC mode. For details, see “MENU items not available in some REC modes.” [Details]

To capture the basic white color in [One Push Set] mode

1.Frame a white object such as a piece of paper filling the screen under the same lighting conditions as you will shoot the subject.

2.MENU (White Balance) [One Push Set] on the control button

The screen momentarily turns black, and when the white balance has been adjusted and stored in the memory, the recording screen is displayed again.

Notes

If the indicator flashes while shooting, the white balance is either not set or cannot be set. Use automatic white balance.

Do not shake or strike the camera while [One Push Set] is in progress.

When flash mode is set to [On] or [Slow Synchro], the white balance is adjusted to the condition with the flash emitting.

The white references loaded using [White Balance] and [Underwater White Balance] are stored separately (DSC-W570/W580 only).
