5.6 Custom White Balance
To create a new Custom White Balance, rst capture a reference White
Balance image. (Try to use a gray card or neutral white surface). Next, select
the Context menu and press the White Balance Picker icon. (Ensure that the
image is in full screen view)
Zoom in and pan to a desired part of the image and then tap on a white/
grey area to create a custom WB. A cross-hair icon will appear on the screen.
You can continue to pick WB point elsewhere in the image until you are
satised with the generated WB. The Custom White Balance is now set and all
subsequent captures will use this WB setting in Auto Save mode. The picked
WB is only applied to the current image if Auto Save mode is deselected.
The IQ Back enables users to create and store up to 3 Custom White Balance
settings. To create and store a Custom WB setting go to the Context menu
and long press the White Balance Picker icon. Deselect the Auto Save box in
the dialog box.
The next time you create a Custom WB setting you will be presented with a
Custom 1, Custom 2 or Custom 3 option. Choose a number to save and store
the WB setting.
This stored Custom WB settings can be accessed again for future use by
scrolling to the bottom of the WB options.
