The default white balance setting (
v
) works well with
most light sources, but if it fails to produce consistent re
sults with a single, unchanging light source, you can lock
white balance using any of the methods below.
Choose Color Temperature
Although consistent results can be
achieved using a white balance op
tion specically adapted to the cur
rent light source, such as [Incandes-
cent] or [Direct sunlight], choosing
the color temperature directly gives
you a greater degree of control.
We recommend that you rst take
a test shot using [Auto] or [Natural
light auto]. You can then view the
color temperature selected by cam
era on the [Basic shooting data]
page of the playback photo info dis‑
play and use it as a reference when choosing a color tem
perature. If [Basic shooting data] is not displayed when
you page through photo info using 1 and 3, select [Play-
back display options] in the playback menu and place
checks (M) next to [Shooting data] and [Basic shooting
data].
