TIPS

• You can also preview different color tones by trying the different

PRESET WB settings under the actual light source and checking the

result on the monitor.

One-touch white balance

This function is useful when you need a more precise white balance than

PRESET WB can provide. To set the optimum white balance for the shooting

conditions, point the camera at a white object under the light source you want

to use and adjust the white balance.

Display V screen and point the

camera at a sheet of white paper.

• Position the paper so that it fills the screen,

making sure there are no shadows.
