Correcting the Green Tint from Mercury
Lamps
When shooting scenes lit by mercury lamps, such as night scenes, the
subject and background in the recorded image may have a green tint. You
can automatically correct the green tint when shooting (Multi-area White
Balance).
After shooting scenes lit by mercury lamps, you should set [Hg Lamp
Corr.] to [Off]. If left set to [On], naturally occurring green colors (not from
the effects of a mercury lamp) may be accidentally corrected.
Movies cannot be corrected.
Since you may not achieve the expected results depending on the
shooting conditions, try taking some test shots first.
