WHITE BALANCE
In digital photography, white balance ensures neutral rendition of
color in any light. It is based on the camera being preset to repro-
duce a particular light color as white.
You can choose from ten different settings:
–
Auto
– for automatic control, which delivers neutral results in
most situations,
– Eight fixed presets for the most frequent light sources:
–
Daylight
- e.g. for outdoor pictures in sunshine.
–
Cloudy
- e.g. for outdoor pictures with cloudy skies.
–
Shadow
- e.g. for outdoor pictures with the main subject in
the shadow.
–
Tungsten
- e.g. for indoor pictures with (prevailing) incan-
descent lamp light.
–
Fluorescent Warm
- e.g. for pictures with (prevailing) light
from fluorescent tubes, for example for homes with warm light
similar to incandescent lamps at approx. 3700K
1
–
Fluorescent Cool
- e.g. for pictures with (prevailing) light
from fluorescent tubes, for example for working areas and
external lighting with cool light at approx. 5800K
1
–
Flash
- e.g. for pictures with electronic flash lighting.
–
Greycard
– for manual setting by metering.
–
Color Temperature
1
– for a directly settable color temperature
value.

All color temperatures are specified in Kelvin.
Note:
Setting to
Auto
allows the white balance to be adjusted for correct
color reproduction when using an electronic flash unit that satisfies
the technical requirements of System 3000 System Camera Adap-
tion (SCA) and has an SCA-3502-5 adapter or a corresponding
integrated foot.
However, if other flash units are used, which are not specially
designed for this camera and do not automatically adjust the white
balance, the flash setting should be used.
Setting the function
For automatic or fixed settings
1. Select the menu item
