G. White Balance and Tint
G2. Auto White Balance A and B
There are two memories in the camera that will remember
the white value for a white target. To set the white balance
correctly aim the camera at a white target such as a piece
of white paper that is under the same lighting as the rest
of the scene. Expose correctly and then press the WB SET
button on the front of the camera. This will store the white
balance in the memory selected by the switch.
G3. ATW (Custom Mode only)
The camera can determine the correct white balance
automatically by continuously analyzing the scene being
shot and adjusting the white balance while you shoot.
This function is called ATW – Auto Tracking White Balance.
Generally, this works well but under most situations you
may occasionally see a shift in colours while shooting.
To enable ATW the WHT BAL switch must be set to either
the A or B position. Then press and hold the WHT BAL
button for at least 2 seconds or use Direct Menu to select
the White Balance options in the viewfinder. Then select
ATW. This will enable the ATW function for the A or B WHT
BAL switch position. The WHT BAL button will illuminate
when the ATW mode is activated.
