NOTES
• When you select the custom white balance:
- Set the custom white balance in a sufficiently illuminated place.
- Set [Digital Zoom] to [ Off].
- Reset the white balance when the lighting conditions change.
- Depending on the light source, may keep flashing. The result will
still be better than with [ Automatic].
• Custom white balance may provide better results in the following cases:
- Changing lighting conditions
-Close-ups
- Subjects in a single color (sky, sea or forest)
- Under mercury lamps and certain types of fluorescent lights
• Depending on the type of fluorescent light, optimal color balance may
not be obtained with [ Fluorescent] or [ Fluorescent H]. If the color
looks unnatural, select [ Automatic] or [ Custom WB].

trast to record movies and photos with special color effects.
