This function is used to set the colour
temperature and tint for a scene where it is
difficult to find a matching pre-set value.
1 Capture an image from the scene. It should
contain something that is neutral in colour.
E.g. a Grey Card.
2 Click the White Balance Tool menu.
3 The last capture is shown together with an
overlay. To select another image, turn the front
Scroll Wheel or swipe left/right on the display.
4 The top row shows the image name and
Colour Temperature/Tint values for the
location of the movable Colour Picker Tool.
The two buttons at the bottom, are used to
store the current values for Temperature and
Tint, or to exit without changing.
5 Find the part of the image that should be
neutral. Move the Colour Picker Tool and
position the small square over that area,
by touching anywhere inside the circle and
sliding.
6 When you release the finger, Temperature and
Tint values are updated in the top row.
7 When the correct area has been selected,
press SET. To exit without changing, press
EXIT.
8 The set value for Temperature and Tint will be
used for all following exposures. The White
Balance Mode is changed to Manual and
colour temperature is shown on the Control
Screen.
Note!
•
The top and bottom parts of the image,
cannot be used for white balance setting.
•
The colour temperature of the current image
does not change.
•
If the area used to take a reading, is too
bright or too dark, Temp and Tint values will
be empty. The same applies if the area is far
from colour neutral.
