Color Temperature/Preset White Balance - Canon EOS C300 Mark II Instruction Manual

4 Press the Å button.
• The Å A or Å B icon will flash quickly.
• Make sure the gray card or white object fills the screen until the procedure is completed.
• Once the icon stops flashing, the procedure is completed. The setting is retained even if you turn off the
camera.
• The custom white balance setting will appear on the bottom left corner of the screen. On the rear panel, the
Å A or Å B icon will be displayed but without the color temperature setting.
NOTES NOTES
• Readjust the custom white balance if the light source or ND filter setting changes.
• Very rarely and depending on the light source, Å may keep flashing (it will change to a slow flashing). The
result will still be better than with the auto white balance.
