The function adjusting the color tone so that white objects look white in
the picture is called white balance (WB). Normally, the <Q> (Auto)
setting will obtain the correct white balance. If natural-looking colors
cannot be obtained with <Q>, you can select the white balance to
match the light source or set it manually by shooting a white object.
