of the procedure is not necessary. To set a new custom white

camera.
NOTES
NOTES
• Readjust the custom white balance if the light source or ND filter setting changes.
• Very rarely and depending on the light source,
Å
may keep flashing (it will change to a slow flashing). In that
case, change the subject brightness and adjust the custom white balance again.
• After the camera registers a custom white balance, the color temperature or CC value may appear in gray. This
indicates that the value registered exceeds the range of values that can be displayed but the white balance is
correctly calibrated and you can continue shooting.
