White Balance CorrectionN
You can correct the white balance that has been set. This adjustment
will have the same effect as using a color temperature conversion or
color compensating filter. Each color can be corrected to one of nine
levels.
Users familiar with using color temperature conversion or color
compensating filters will find this feature handy.
Sample setting: A2, G1
During the white balance correction, <2> will be displayed in the
viewfinder and on the LCD monitor.
One level of the blue/amber correction is equivalent to 5 mireds of a color
temperature conversion filter. (Mired: A measurement unit indicating the
density of a color temperature conversion filter.)
