Setting the White Balance
In certain situations, the color white may appear slightly reddish or bluish. This can 
occur when shooting under early or late day sunlight, on a cloudy day, or under 
halogen lighting. By using the manual White Balance feature you can achieve a 
more accurate reproduction of the color white.
