•For details on the white balance t page 17

•If the ambient light consists of sodium-vapor lamps or mercury-vapor lamps alone, an accurate white balance cannot be acquired due to the properties of the light source. Use of the flash is recommended to overpower the ambient light.

Color temperature

You can set the white balance using a color temperature.

Based on using the set color temperature as the standard, the color can be compensated from G (Green) to M (Magenta) just like using a CC (Color Compensation) filter for photography.

•When setting the color temperature measured by the color meter, test shooting is recommended before the actual photo is taken.

1Display the White-balance mode screen with the function dial and the Fn button (page 43).

2Display the Color temperature screen with V on the controller, then press B.

3Set the color temperature with v/V/b/B on the controller.

•Select the digit (thousand’s or hundred’s place) of the color temperature with b/B, then set the value of the selected digit with v/V.

•The color temperature can be selected between 2500K and 9900K.

4Select the setup area of the CC filter with B, then set the CC filter with v/V, if necessary.
