Auto White Balance (AWB)
Depending on the conditions prevailing when pictures are taken, the pictures may take on a
reddish or bluish tinge. Furthermore, when a multiple number of light sources are being used or
there is nothing with a color close to white, Auto White Balance may not function properly. In a
case like this, set the white balance to a mode other than [AWB].
