Selecting Personal White Balance

You can set your own white balance with the dedicated driver software provided with the
camera. You can thereby obtain a more accurate white balance in the image. It is ideal when
you have to take many pictures under the same lighting conditions such as in a photo studio.
For details, see the "EOS DIGITAL Software User's Manual."
