Taking Pictures
You can set the image quality level (compression ratio). The default
setting is “Fine”.
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 White Balance), or to intentionally apply a creative effect to your
images.
