White Balance (WB) Mode Setting

The white balance adjustment mode can be selected from the
following three options.
Mode
AUTO Identifies the white part in the live image and adjusts the white balance automatically. The white
balance adjustment is executed automatically whenever the illumination brightness changes. How-
ever, when the live image contains little white part or with certain specimen type or brightness, the
white balance cannot be adjusted properly and the optimum color tone cannot be obtained.
MANUAL Recalls the white balance value preset for each color temperature. When the user specifies a color
temperature, the color toe matching it can be obtained.
(Available color temperature settings are OTWB, 3000K, 3700K, 4000K, 4500K, 5500K and 6500K.)
}When OTWB is selected in the MANUAL mode, the white balance value set when the OTWB button on the hand switch
was last pressed is recalled. Therefore, if the lighting condition such as the brightness was different from the moment the
OTWB button was last pressed, the optimum color tone would not be obtained. If this happens, view a white image on the
live view and execute the OTWB adjustment operation again (p. 22).
}Pressing the OTWB button of the hand switch sets the OTWB mode automatically.
