Note
The apparent colors of an object vary with lighting conditions. Many objects appear bluer under summertime daylight and redder under artificial lights. The human eye is better at compensating for different lighting conditions than is automatic equipment such as the Memory Stick Camera Module. If the color balance of an entire image appears unnatural when the camera is set to automatic mode, modifying the white balance manually may allow you to record more natural images.
