Custom
• When "Auto" is selected for the white balance setting, the camera automatically
determines the white point of the subject. Certain subject colors and light source
conditions can cause problems when the camera tries to determine the white point, which
makes proper white balance adjustment impossible. If this happens, select the white
balance setting that matches your shooting conditions (Daylight, Overcast, etc.).
