correction levels will be reset if you record custom white balance
data.
B: blue; A: amber; M: magenta; G: green
You can customize camera operation so that the B and A
adjustment screen is accessed simply by turning the [
] or
[
] dial (
=

One level of blue/amber correction is equivalent to about 5
mireds on a color temperature conversion lter. (Mired: Color
temperature unit representing color temperature conversion lter
density)
You can also congure this setting by choosing MENU (
=
31)
> [
6] tab > [WB correction].
You can also choose the correction level by touching or dragging
the bar in step 1 or the frame in step 2.
Shots in step 1 that are too bright or dark may prevent you from
setting the white balance correctly.
A message is displayed if you specify an image in step 3 that is
not suitable for loading white data. Choose [Cancel] to choose a
different image. Choose [OK] to use that image for loading white
data, but note that it may not produce a suitable white balance.
If [Unselectable image.] is displayed in step 3, choose [OK] to
clear the message and specify another image.
If [Set WB to “
”] is displayed in step 3, press the [ ] button to
return to the menu screen, and then choose [
].
Instead of a white object, a gray chart or 18% gray reector
(commercially available) can produce a more accurate white
balance.
The current white balance and related settings are disregarded
when you shoot in step 1.
