temperature of the light source changes.

The settings are erased after the camera is restarted or turned off/on, so register them as a preset in order to save the
settings.

– Close-up shooting
– Shooting a scene with only one color, such as sky, sea, or forest
– Shooting under mercury lamps and certain fluorescent/LED lights
• If the setting is other than [AWB], and the location or brightness changes or the ND filter is switched, adjust the white balance again.
