White Balance Correction
*
White Balance Auto Bracketing
With just one shot, three images having a different color tone can be recorded
simultaneously. Based on the color temperature of the current white balance
setting, the image will be bracketed with a blue/amber bias or magenta/green
bias. This is called white balance bracketing (WB-BKT). White balance
bracketing is possible up to ±3 levels in single-level increments.
BfA bias ±3 levels
Set the white balance bracketing amount.
• In step 2 for white balance correction,
when you turn the <
0
> dial, the "."
mark on the screen will change to "•••"
(3 points). Turning the dial to the right
sets the B/A bracketing, and turning it to
I
the left sets the M/G bracketing.
~
On the right side of the screen,
"SKT"
indicates the bracketing direction and
the bracketing amount.
• Pressing the <
INFO.
>
button will cancel
all the [WS SHIFT/SKT] settings.
• Press <
@>
to exit the setting and
return to the menu.
Bracketing Sequence
The images will be bracketed in the following sequence: 1. Standard
white balance, 2. Blue (B) bias, and 3. Amber (A) bias, or 1. Standard
white balance, 2. Magenta (M) bias, 3. Green (G) bias.
[]] • During WB bracketing, the maximum burst for continuous shooting will be
lower and the number of possible shots
will
also
decrease to one-third the
normal number, Also, the white balance icon will blink on the LCD panel.
• You can also set white balance correction and AEB together with white
balance bracketing. If you set AEB in combination with white balance
bracketing, a total of nine images will be recorded for a single shot.
• Since three images are recorded for one shot, the card will take longer to
record the shot.
• "BKT" stands for Bracketing.
