White Balance - Canon ICAM62B Advanced User's Manual

White Balance

White balance (WB) is for making the white areas look white. Normally, the
Auto [ Q ] (Ambience priority) or [ Q w] (White priority) setting will obtain
the correct white balance. If natural-looking colors cannot be obtained with
Auto, you can select the white balance to match the light source or set it
manually by shooting a white object.
