Menu Guide—The Shooting Menu

Preset White Balance
Preset white balance is used to adjust white bal-
ance when shooting under mixed lighting or to
compensate for light sources with a strong color
cast (for example, to make pictures taken under a
lamp with a red shade look as though they had
been taken under white light). When

(White

bal preset) is selected from the white-balance
menu, the menu shown at right will be displayed
in the monitor.

balance from memory and sets white balance to

To measure a new value for white balance, place a
neutral gray object under the lighting that will be
used in the final photograph. Frame this object so
that it fills the square in the center of the menu
shown above. Highlight Measure and press the
multi selector to the right to measure a new value
for white balance (shutter will be released, but no
picture will be recorded).
