White balance is a function for adjusting the color of an image so that white
objects appear white. Set the white balance if you are not satisfied with the
color balance of pictures taken with white balance set to F (Auto), or
to intentionally apply a creative effect to your images. The default setting
is F (Auto).
* The color temperature (K) is an estimate. This does not indicate precise colors.
