Note
• Since color meters are designed for film cameras, the values differ under fluorescent/
sodium lamp/mercury lamps. We recommend that you use the custom white balance
or do a test shooting.
The camera automatically detects a light source and adjusts
the color tones.
If you select an option to suit a specific light source, the color
tones are adjusted for the light source (preset white balance).
(Custom), you can register your setting (page 106).
