with the light source. However, if the scene is too bright or too dark or if other extreme 

conditions apply, the pictures may appear reddish or bluish. The White Balance may 

not operate correctly if there is a multiple number of light sources.

vary depending on the lighting type, so use [AWB] or [ ]/[ ].

Mode is changed, the white balance setting returns automatically to [AWB].)
