3 Setting the White BalanceN

122

You can set the white balance’s color temperature numerically. This is

for advanced users.

Select [White balance].

 Under the [z3] tab, select [White

balance], then press <0>.

Set the color temperature.

 Select [P].

 Turn the <6> dial to set the color

temperature, then press <0>.



The color temperature can be set from approx.

2500 K to 10000 K in 100 K increments.

P Setting the Color Temperature

 If the exposure obtained in step 1 differs greatly from the standard

exposure, a correct white balance may not be obtained.

 In step 3, the following images cannot be selected: images captured

while the Picture Style was set to [Monochrome], multiple-exposure

images, and images shot with another camera.

 Instead of a white object, an 18% gray card (commercially available) can

produce a more accurate white balance.

 The personal white balance registered with the provided software will be

registered under [O]. If you execute step 3, the data for the registered

personal white balance will be erased.

 When setting the color temperature for an artificial light source, set white

balance correction (magenta or green) as necessary.

 If you set [P] to the reading taken with a commercially-available color

temperature meter, take test shots and adjust the setting to compensate

for the difference between the color temperature meter’s reading and the

camera’s color temperature reading.
